I like to apply some business logic to it.

• I expect to use the product or functionality provided by x on a regular basis
• The use of x has no added utility
• The functionality and/or feature set (e.g. content) of x may degrade significantly without warning and/or recourse
• Unavailability of x is likely to render it completely useless

If most of these conditions can be regularly sufficiently true, then searching an alternative that incorporates proper ownership is a good course of action.
