I would like to add it would benefit this discussion if people mentioning Sn0wball also add if it's the Premium of Free version they were using when they got banned.

Hacks are either detected or not detected so it's not really possible for some Sn0wball users to get banned and for others nothing at all.

We all assume people hacking on Live servers would know better than to use the Free unprotected version, but who knows ?

I was using the free version and was not banned. I still haven't been banned so I assume I dodged that bullet somehow. I only used it for a couple days about 2 weeks ago.

I think only people using premium got banned

how can the warden system ban you if you used it 2-3 weeks ago?

logs. when banwave like this occurs, it's always because Blizzard found a way how to detect usage of specific hack and was tracking the usage of that hack past last few weeks to maximize the scale of the banwave.
