Why assume everyone else has Google?

I don't. Most of the people I have to deal with actually use Exchange. Either way, the question stands: How do I share my availability across systems without giving them details about my other meetings?

Microsoft is the same as the corporate Google overlord. Both entirely evil to the core.

You either create new calendars or you share meetings ad-hoc thru ICS files manually. This probably depends on the type of work you do tho. This would not affect me since I don’t need folks randomly scheduling meetings with me for this to be a thing—instead the “Are you free X?” conversation is quick & painless.
