I hear that Bitcoin can't be controlled by the government but then I see news from time to time that some government has seized millions in Bitcoin from someone, or is selling off some Bitcoin it has seized... 🤔

If you store your recovery words properly, this is not a concern. Most of these seizures are from poor storage or people voluntarily transferring the coins.
Poor storage = all recovery words in one location that can easily be found.
Often those stories are propaganda when you look into it. One of the benefits of having a public ledger.
