The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy has this to say about Alterra Corporation:
Of all the known trans-governmental networks in the galaxy, Alterra is famous for being the most profitable with its many no longer questionable policies. One such policy is claiming that all resources on a random planet in its vicinity are their property, meaning that you should never attempt to survive on an alien world owned by Alterra if you don't want to end up with a dept equivalent to 500 triganic pus.
This and other reasons have given the corporation a bad image, and has even sent it to court for unfair exploitation. Luckily for Alterra, they already had so much money that they were able to afford one of the best available lawyers who claimed that since the corporation already had some very admirably positive aspects (being among the galaxy's best employers, appearing to be a democratic corperation and encouraging free enterprise within its space), time itself began to take a toll on it. The judges concurred and in a moving speech claimed that time itself was in contempt of court for having falsely degraded the company's image, and duely confiscated the timeline of the entire court from history itself by returning back in time to change events.
The Alterra Court is today one of the many events used by the Campaign for Real Time as an example for the increasing greediness of people to change history at their own profit, but on the other hand the Campaign wouldn't have much ground over Alterra because of the latter's reputation of being profitable.
Hope ya liked that & happy towel day!
