There will always be a free internet, but it will require leaving popular sites (if Google gets its way).
If they push a few million people to FOSS and we're all just happily using Lemmy and Mastodon on Firefox in Linux, I'm ok with that.
if search engines that werent google didnt suck id be happy to use another one. even google is getting worse results now too but at least its usually wrong really quickly
Ecosia is pretty good, they plant trees with the money they get from your searches
Apparently now we have to pay for them if we want the to be good!
