Of course. Free markets in the sense of being completely unregulated, are logically incompatible with regulated ones.
As a consumer, I want a regulated market. I want product safety and a lack of fraud.

Regulation is necessary to a free market. Otherwise powerful forces in the market will make it non-free for everyone else or make it non-free for honest business by forcing them to do illicit things to be competitive.
