Its not a free market

  Browser choice is most certainly a free market. Microsoft, Mozilla, and Apple all develop their own, and their browsers are not beholden to the same pressures as Google (i.e. to not block ads).

    Except for the Microsoft part, yes: https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2018/12/06/microsoft-edge-making-the-web-better-through-more-open-source-collaboration/ https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2018/12/06/micro...

  It's not a free market, so let's make it less of a free market by getting the government involved. That's the plan, right?

    You, like so many others, are conflating "ideal" market and "free" market. Free markets do not always behave ideally, and ideal markets is really what we should be aiming for.

    Ehhh...you could probably just take away all the government protections such as patents and subsidies/tax breaks instead
