That is correct: your application will have to conform to the terms of the GPL 
-- or, as you say, you will be obligated by the GPL's terms and conditions.

If you do NOT live by the terms of the GPL, yes, you will be on the shame list! 

If you live under GPL obligations (to give proper credit, to make the 
application and its source code freely available, etc.) then there is no shame. 

GPL obligations are very strict, so be sure you understand them and can live 
with them before you proceed.
