20 years of SQL has proven that it sucks for managing digital currency. You're worried about the wrong thing, blockchains are a very simple data structure. Simplicity is the best way to prevent issues and vulnerabilities. They would have easily made their own transaction optimized database solution to take control over your life, if blockchains never existed.
CBDC itself is not gonna give them more control over you than they already have. The biggest threat with CBDC is it's security and distribution which makes it a legit excuse for a cashless society in contrast to the current flawed system which is too vulnerable to be used in cashless hell. CBDC will be released next year, at which point the world goes cashless. That's the real threat.
