I mean if you're getting X number of users per day and you don't need to pay for bandwidth or anything, there's gotta be SOME way to monetize down the line.

If your userbase or the current CEO likes it or not.

And don't forget when Caddy was putting ads in your servers via a `Caddy-Sponsors` header.

(It was reverted after the situation gained visibility, as is tradition.)

FWIW they do seem to regret it, but goes to show how very tempting it is for projects to go down the ads route once they have users.
