Free will and freedom are two separate things. The ability to make choices and decisions is separate from your ability to execute them.

That’s why it’s called free “will”. Will is an internal concept, it’s your desire determination, etc for something to happen.

Randomness is not really central to this discussion. What matters is the source, not whether the source is random or deterministic.
