I try to avoid using real locations myself, and Aether ended up a private organization because I didn't want the situation reflecting badly on real people. Same with a few other pieces. If I can use a private organization, I will. There are always a few... bad eggs in any bunch, so a private organization abusing its power makes sense sometimes. Other times it doesn't. Usually the only time the government is completely corrupt is when I created it. Otherwise, it's not so bad, just maybe a bad employee or too.
