How can they get away for not providing you free services ?

It’s entirely possible to be illegally anti-competitive while giving shit away for discount/free.

I think the sentiment was that without ad revenue Google could not afford to provide free services. As a rule, "stuff" costs someone something.
Maybe I don't want "free" services if it means I have to pay with my attention and mental health.
