Possible Detection? "Fair Play is at the Heart of Hearthstone"

Fair Play is at the Heart of Hearthstone

A fun, fair, and competitive environment is at the very heart of the Hearthstone experience. This is a reminder that we take fair play very seriously, and that making use of third party programs that automate gameplay (also known as ‘bots’ or ‘botting’) is a violation of our Terms of Use. Accounts that are found to be making use of ‘bots’ are subject to penalties, up to and including permanent suspension.

What are peoples thoughts about this announcement and do you think they have been tracking said Hearthstone bots? I have a feel that there is a mass banwave incoming.

Why is "Possible Detection" even in the headline for anything other than scare tactics.
