Yes, they'd be allowed to use other ad providers, and hopefully it would be illegal to penalize them for constantly running some multi-armed-bandit trials across multiple ad providers.

Ad quality might go down because there are multiple providers. Overall I don't see the upside. Maybe something that would make more sense is if Google was split into two or more search engines, each of them would get a copy of the current source code and data.
