Mozilla is running Firefox adverts in my city. I don't remember seeing browser adverts since the initial chrome push.

Does Chrome spam on the google home page count?

I've heard that is one of the most valuable ad spots in the world and I've seen a lot of Chrome ads there.

Yeah since they literally won't sell that spot, I'd say it's worth billions of dollars.

It would be fascinating to know if Mozilla's financing model makes advertising a no-brainer, i.e. the cost of switching 1,000 users is more/less than the search bar revenue from 1,000 users.

For starters, Google Translate has had a Chrome advert for as long as I remember.

Just to make it clear, I was talking about physical billboard adverts.
