Obviously it's not something that upsets me, but I was expecting there to be ads and haven't seen any in several weeks of usage.

I've used it on several networks and do not run an adblocker on my phone, nor do I currently use Pihole or any similar DNS based adblocking.

Am I just fortunate, or is this beta related?
