Correcting spelling of "buy" in case anyone else was as confused as I was.

 The point is that, as you see, inside of the add ons Google has
 commercial "By Wikipedia". Even the most of problems related to
 Google's financing Wikimedia are not on the Google's side, I think
 that Google should give money for promoting non-Wikimedia sites for
 money with the phrase "By Wikipedia".

 believe the stance is 'never say never', but I would think the
 introduction of ads would be extremely unlikely and similarly
 unpopular.
 Hope this helps.

  I hope that a small image will pass the list.

 So, the question is: Does WMF have some money from such kind of Google
 commercials?
