They already have. Have you noticed the number of ads shown on google maps?
No? I’ve never seen any ads on Google Maps, though this might be a local thing. I suspect this is different in the US where “consumer rights” gets you a fine for speaking such communist propaganda?
To illistrate this, I just typed “restaurants” in Google Maps in downtown Prague and the first result was an ad for KFC (it looked like a real result but it said “sponsored” on top). But I do have a US phone.
