由于版权原因，Up主不能随便阅读别人的小说进行视频创作。
I looked up 随便, and there are 3 possible meanings,
casual
random
informal
Which one do you think fits?

1Could you provide wider context for this sentence? I ask this because Linguee provides this translation "For copyright reasons, Up owners cannot just read other people's novels for video creation.", with 随便 translated by "just", which seems to me finally more correct than other suggestions like "freely", "as one wishes", etc.– StarckmanCommented Jan 28, 2021 at 14:33

1Something formal might be "at discretion", I feel…– xbhCommented Feb 4, 2021 at 18:08

随便 can 'do as one wishes'
'freely' would be a suitable translation in this context
不能随便阅读别人的小说 - cannot freely read other people's novels
Simple answer: in this case, "随便" just means
help yourself
.
