Or they could just have been trying to quash a false rumour.

Actually, some brands are international (e.g. car manufacturers), so Netflix's world wide audience would be attractive to them for advertising.

I think that Netflix have no intention of advertising, as the 'no-adverts' is a massive part of their attraction and a great selling point.

If they ever did advertise, I think it would be a last resort, no option decision.
