Seems like a lot of needless drama. What real legal threat did they pose that warranted a federal suit in the US against Ofcom?

Just ignore Ofcom?

More than that if his clients ever do end up in the UK for whatever reason his letters sent on their behalf to the UK government are going to be prime evidence that the violation of the law was wilful.

Meanwhile if his clients remain beyond the UKs reach sending these letters achieves nothing of value.

There's no world where this response convinces Ofcom to stop doing their job at enforcing (to the best of their ability) the UKs laws.

He is just hurting his own clients by sending letters back to them.
