Problems with Pokerstars from using Sharkscope

Has anyone ever actually received a warning or any problems?  I don't think they are really enforcing this rule right?

Up until this point they

Up until this point they have publicly said they aren't enforcing this rule.
I wouldn't worry so much about it, they are focusing on limiting Sharkscope's effectiveness.  I'll be sure to make a forum announcement if anything changes.

''We will not be closing

''We will not be closing accounts of players found to be using SharkScope. Instead, we will be working hard to ensure that the data gathered by SharkScope is incomplete and unreliable.  We will, however, be warning players who "shout out" statistics in chat, under our "abuse of other players" chat rules.  To report such instances, please call a Chat Moderator using the tools built into the PokerStars client.''
 
Conclusion: Do not worry about it!

whew

Great I didn't realize they changed their policy.  I've been sharkscoping everyone before I sit down to play, its such a huge help I wouldn't play headsup sngs on Stars without it.
