I have seen some news regarding hackers, terrorists, and other criminals using bitcoin for illegal trades.
How the police can find about these transactions?
Even if is hard to track illegal transactions, I don't think that Bitcoin can be a danger to society, since the problem is the society and its people.
Since the beginning of the internet this is happening ( the bad people committing crimes)  and no one is willing to shutdown internet because of that, so in that matters Bitcoin should be equivalent. I think those illegal transaction are one of the reasons some governments and the media are trying to depreciate bitcoin, but the problem is not Crypto/blockchain or Bitcoin, is just the society.

yes I agree with you most countries refuse btc because they are afraid the anonymous bitcoin will be used for criminal activities. but actually a crime will always happen anywhere before there btc crime already exists. the use of btc for the crime depends on the user. we can only prevent this negative issue developing by always promoting good things about btc.
