But if you have to trust that the devices aren’t hacked why can’t you just use a database and give each device a private key?

This is the key question to any blockchain-for-X proposal: explain why you can't just use a secured database. My personal suspicion is that all commercial activity already requires enough trust that using a secured database is tenable and vastly easier.
