Do you? A 'free market' where governments can and do supply unlimited amounts interest-free money to a hand full of investors and big companies is not a free market at all. Not to mentioned big business in our 'free market' is constantly lobbying for all kinds of government control and protectionism and vice versa.
In this system anything can be bought by those who control the money supply by inflating all assets, meaning you can't really own any property. So what we have is neither a free market nor capitalism.

In the world of venture capital, unlimited interest-free money supply from central banks and non-profitable companies 'making' billions, there is really no capitalism or free market economy to speak of. This economy is based on speculation, not supply and demand and so the investors (getting most of the free government money) make the rules, not the costumers.

We don't have anything that even remotely resembles a free market economy on the level of big tech!
We have an economy that functions by virtue of central banks pumping billions into venture capital firms. Venture capital investors in turn speculate on big tech companies that never make any profit. It's a top-down regulated economy full of Ponzi schemes, where a handful of brokers with a virtually unlimited supply of government money make the rules. That is why big tech and big business agenda's are constantly at odds with the popular opinion on the internet and society. They don't care because it is no longer your money they need.
