I destroyed them on my Orcish Legate playthrough. I joined them on my Kajiti Assassin playthrough. I ignored them on my current battlemage playthrough. Then again, my Kajit assassin character is a dangerous sadist, who enjoys murdering the helpless, my Orcish Legate is a loyal Imperial officer, who was drugged and got amnesia while infiltrating the Stormcloaks (leading to the events at Helgen), and my Redguard battlemage is generally neutral (reluctant hero type).

Ultimately, the organizations good deeds were only done because they recieved a contract to do so. Unlike the Thieves Guild (who'd I'd consider just "bad"), the Dark Brotherhood are a bunch of sadistic cultists who are almost purely evil. I dunno, thats just my take on it.
