'''Service siphoning''', as defined in this wiki, is the conversion of traditional-purchase models into service-based, or subscription models. Pages that fall under this category are examples of instances of this anti-consumer behavior. This usually applies to ''service-connected'' physical products, that converted a life-time purchase feature into a subscription. For the conversion of lifetime software licenses into subscription-based licenses, see [[:Category:License Laundering|license laundering]].
