Then they should do it by themselves at least don’t give them the permission.

By doing that they are (at least morally) liable for every damage that will be done.

And of course Russia, China etc. will use it and we consider them the bad guys. Maybe a bad idea to follow their lead if you want to by the good guy.

They’re not morally liable any more than the inventors of Kevlar or thermal imaging or the GPS. All technology that is useful for war will be used for war.
You have overlooked the point at which use was permitted.

It's one thing if something is used for war but another if you're okay with it.
