Interesting idea, any idea is worth a try. If the WMF profits, we all benefit, right?

Build a firefox extention that displays ads on wikipedia. Make it opt-in. People will use it. Or put a hide button next to the ads that makes them invisible, instantly and permanently. That's what I'm doing on my top-secret project.
Yeah, you know... if the WMF offered served ads, and I knew that the money was going to the Foundation, I'd most likely allow the ads, frankly. Who knows, I might even see something I'd buy. :-)
Your comment that "people will use it" is probably accurate.
