I guess you would have to trademark your logo to stop people from slapping it on things that don't even use the product. It's nice to explicitly spell out that you won't actually go after people who aren't doing anything silly.

If that wasn't how it worked, I could just make "Ubuntu X" or something that used a lot of Ubuntu but mixed in unstable changes and adware and whatever else I wanted and ride off the Ubuntu name.
