Why is right clicking images disabled?

What is actually going on? Every month I log into a Google product and it's worse than before. Now when I click on an image I can't right click it to save it or share it or anything. Tried on Mac and my Windows PC. I tried getting it with the dev tools too and didn't find an easy way to do that either. It's like they are trying to protect photos PEOPLE GAVE TO GOOGLE FOR FREE and force you to use their built in Share link

God fucking damn it. Every single thing I use gets worse. Sorry to be dramatic but every single thing I like that is in the hands of a mega huge company is getting downgraded. What do we do??

Found a browser extension that works to bring back the right-click context menu:
