Original Note:
There is no current evidence of a global surveillance scheme, however governments *can* snoop on CBDC users. E.g., China expressly talks of 'legal traceability for large amounts' and conditional anonymity for Digital Yuan users. Other govts may follow similar approaches. https://www.fpri.org/article/2023/06/china-is-doubling-down-on-its-digital-currency/
