I'm honestly surprised I haven't seen a placeholder service that serves up ads in the images. The service gets revenue, and the dev gets something that's obviously not a final product.

Placeholders are meant to have no 'message'. In general, ads have messages. Might be a bit difficult to find common ground.

I wonder if an ad company will now get the idea to purchase picsum and (eventually) serve ads.

I'm not sure I'd personally use such a service. I see enough ads on a day to day basis without specifically seeking out more.

Cool idea!
