The thing that people don't get about Eto is that her only real crime has been kidnapping her father. I only consider kidnapping Yoshimura to be a crime, although it was a means to an end since she needed him to make oeg capable of breaching V security. The whole thing with Karren isn't real torture, since she did so to make Karren much stronger and Karren herself agreed to do it.

Her founding Aogiri isn't something you can put a stamp on and say it's good or bad. It's a natural reaction that an oppressed and persecuted species tries to defend itself and thus form an organisation to fight for their own freedom. The founding fathers of America had less reason to fight the British, yet everyone hails them as heroes (as they should). In every large organisation there's good and there's evil.

She is sadistic though, I'll give you that. But other than that, she's just like most TG characters: a massive shade of gray, not good nor evil. Trying to clasify characters in a series like this one as if they were wholly good or wholly evil is not possible (even our lord and saviour, Ken Kaneki, has kidnapped and tortured someone, on top of killing innocents at the Lunatic Eclipse building).
