No legal issues, however you can void warranty in some cases.

Specifically if you use those on your car. I guess you are aware that these are no Star but a copy. They may work fine but may stop working too when MB introduces some tricks at DAS. Unfortunately the genuine SDS isn't easily available and not any good option.

LIKE PUTTING THE SERIAL OF THE MULTIPLEXER TO THE BLOCKED DEVICES LIST.

Of course you can trust on hackers dealing with it but that is another story.
