I think it can be summed up like that: Eto is not "good" but neither "evil". That's it. lol

No, but if you think about it her past is a explanation why she did everything. She always felt like she was just "nothing", a surplus of a relationship and nobody loved her anyway. She had nowhere to belong to because she is neither human nor ghoul. And on top of that she knew that the CCG is working together with ghouls (and who knows what else is written in that diary). She knew about the injustice of the world at an early age. Of course this doesn't change the fact that she also does "evil" things even if it was partly for some "greater good" and even if the people she hurt aren't "perfect angels" either. A sad or difficult past is no and never will be a justification. And explanation and justification are different things. She has to have a reason for being like that after all. You're not born and think "Well, just gotta overthrow the whole world cause I can". In my opinion what we know of her past is not even enough. You don't achieve your goals by being nice that's for sure but her actions are very drastic to say at least.

But for me she is still a good character and a great villain. There may be a few strange people but most don't think that Eto is just a poor girl or something like that. And of course others can still dislike her for various reasons. People have different opinions after all.
