Lots of people have told me (not to me specifically of course) that paying for software was the magic thing that would rid software of ads. But isn’t Windows a payed-for product? It seems more likely that such organizations will do whatever they can get away with.
Another example is Spotify with their podcasts suggestions (that you can’t get rid of). Why would I, who is not from America, want to listen to the wife of a former American president?
