It was very polite, and props to them for that. But that doesn't mean there were no threats.

to use the Ubuntu trademarks and Ubuntu word in a domain name would require approval from Canonical... Unfortunately, in this instance we cannot give you permission to use Ubuntu trademarks...

This has a big "OR ELSE" implicit in it. Requiring means enforcing.

How fun. It doesn't require you to send requests to people who don't violate your trademark, but they did anyway.
