The only consistent way I can think of existing in a form without free will would be as a “prisoner” in my body: a mind that is capable of thinking and learning from the information presented to it by the senses, but unable to alter it in any way, the arms and body moving without the consent of the conscious mind.
I was thinking more along the lines of a P-zombie, but with the consciousness intact and unable to influence the zombie’s actions, disconnected from it somehow.

Since you’re not stricken with this inability, you obviously have free will as you’re interpreting it (but that result wouldn’t be controversial).
Obviously?
