No advertising unless it is very relevent and justified. Do not do this excessively.

Maybe I’m missing something, but hasn’t this been the case since forever?
I mean, Google is an advertising company. I would be surprised if they didn’t serve ads in their free email service.
I've never in my life seen an ad in Gmail mobile app in-line as though it were something in your inbox. I get really frustrated at the indignance over "ad company does ads and you're mad" as if there's not a difference when things get escalated.
It's under the promotions tab. Been that way for a while. I just don't use that tab myself so I don't see it often.
