Yeah, anything paid can have ads. Cable TV springs to mind. Magazines. Even streaming services are thinking about it.

If search becomes a utility, like water or natural gas, presumably there would be some limit to the advertising. I think the original Google results with ads on the right format is a good compromise. Because 2% of the time an ad is what you actually want, and those options are then presented still.
