However, this still results in the answer "no" to free will so I will vote that way. If I had to guess, I think it's an illusion of sorts.
But I agree with Losty. the concept of "free will" is not well defined. In fact, I consider it to be as slippery as woo words.
Well, even with quantum randomness, there's still cause and effect, right?
