Firstly, this is probably just an experiment to see if it draws more
donations. If it doesn't, they probably won't use the tactic in the future.

Second, if WMF doesn't meet the fundraising goal they will have to cut
something from the budget. If it's so very important to you that they not
try advertising techniques that are mildly annoying to some users you should
start by suggesting projects that won't get funded or people that won't get
hired or servers that won't get bought, etc.

Third, adverts are turned off for non-logged in users. Try logging in.
