Governments and corporations are fictional persons. They have no "moral consciousness" of any kind, outside of rhetorical and ideological fantasy.
So, this will not be a question of moral or immoral use. It will be amoral, in the hands of those who have advanced themselves through manipulation of the aforementioned ideological rhetoric.
You continue to believe that there is hope for this modern, post-industrial society. But there is none. We as people have increased the sophistication of our tools and our reach - just as relentlessly as we have avoided the refinement of our own beings.
In the end you don't get Star Trek. You don't even get Starship Troopers. You get Scanner, Darkly And hope there is Valis.

Godism. Everything else falls short, and will end, sooner or later.
For people who can't handle God.

Who cares about any of these things? They indicate a preoccupation with self-interest.

Our very sense of ridiculous fables like "Islam" or "Christianity" will be less than meaningless. Their only use on this earth is to prevent totally corrupting the ability to respond to grace. They do not themselves confer grace, nor can grace be attracted through merit. Through those theological distortions God is a merchant, or a whore. But Love comes to us from God because it is mercy, not recompense.

Awareness is a good first step, but...
Good luck with that. The world economy and middle-class lifestyle are built on theft, slavery, extortion and murder. A man will not sacrifice his new Ford Taurus to remedy a system that resulted in him owning (owing) it.

Gaseous? So it is an element. ARRGH!
I complained to the FCC....
I didn't see enough of Janet's breast to compensate for watching the Superbowl.
I read that as Excursion Funerals. Twice. It really sounds like a good idea though. I have to update my will now.
"Excretion Funerals" here.
Same disease, smells worse...
Seriously? A crystal?
Right. Can they get it to gaseous form first?
Also, point of clarification (pun intended): Does this crystalline light need to be first observed as a particle, or will a wave observation prove to be equally effective in achieving desired result?
