So I assume that ads will appear also on Mathematics at some point, although so far I haven't seen any:
The experiment will run on all SE sites in some shape or form during the 6 months. I won't post on each site about it, this announcement is sufficient. Inappropriate ads are full screen takeovers, punch the monkey, scam, pornographic, racist, etc. Some divergence from topic is ok but we'll monitor for exaggerations. Testing is for us to get an understanding of the quality of ad networks, profitability of the network, variety of availabilities, and other things as they come up. We're planning a recap of our findings at the end of the time period Stay tuned for that. — Juan M ♦ 10 hours ago
The announcement cause quite a reaction on meta, the post is currently at +27/-23. And there are also a few other recent post about ads on Meta Stack Exchange.
For example: What data is being gathered during the advertisement test? What about end-user feedback? and Ads on SE sites are excessively animated, irrelevant, dubious and resource-intensive
And also some discussions on per-site metas, such as: We're testing advertisements on The Workplace.
