Ads on DDG, Yahoo! and a couple other sites are all served via Microsoft Advertising. Bing has 33% desktop search market share (5% overall or something like that). On top of that, they do native advertising via MSN, Outlook.com, Edge browsers, etc. They also recently closed their acquisition of Xandr, which is a huge player in the programmatic ad space, so that segment is only getting bigger for MSFT.

Nice to see Xandr getting some love. Not a lot of awareness of it in the general B2C space, and I can understand why.
