To be fair to Canonical, those messages can be disabled by deleting /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/20apt-esm-hook.conf, but that's still kinda unacceptable IMO.

They should've just disabled the messages unless you actually attached a pro license

(disclaimer: I mainly use kubuntu as my debian-based distro of choice, because gnome/gdm3 makes my eyes bleed)

Another thing, you can get like 5 licenses for free (for personal use), but I understand people not wanting to have to do that in the first place (but free live patching is pretty cool).
