I'm not surprised. However, I'd say the game has changed now that an official policy statement has been issued. It'll be hard to claim ignorance in the future. I'd guess those in violation in the future would be looking at a minimum of some time off.

BTW, do you happen to know the outcome from those already contacted?

Management has just set the precedent that defying and blatantly violating company policy (use of bots) is OK. A simple "REMINDER" to the 99.7% and the coming crackdown on 3rd party entrepreneurs (whose names have NEVER been associated with the 0.3%), is tacit approval of the past practices of the .3%!! You can get away with it as long as we " REMIND" you of your prohibited behavior. The Union should take note.

.3% of 4700 = 14 pilots. That's a manageable group to call in for questioning and discipline.

Reminders typically precede more action. Don't know how that could be interpreted as tacit approval. During the hearing the fact they clicked on this link will be evidence. The only oversight is not making us click "notified".
