I can’t say I like Apple, but damn the whole patent thing sucks!
Well, Apple stole a patent after they were presented with it when they lied about wanting to do a "collaboration ". Then literally GUTTED their engineering team with crazy sign on bonuses while using what they saw from that meeting and bypass their “collaboration”.
I agree that patents suck IF there was no end date. But I’m totally ok with Apple getting in trouble for blatantly doing something like this.
Fuck Apple. They deserve this and more for being fucking too big to get in trouble.
Apple’s MO is, and has been for a while, seeing something a startup is doing, saying “That’s a stupid idea”, then two years later unveiling an identical product and calling it innovation.
You’re getting downvoted a lot, but honestly you’re right. The fact that corporations are arguing over who gets to use technology that could help people with, or could have, medical conditions is really depressing. I get that an Apple Match isn’t going to be that accurate, but it could still be a sign that something is off.
Technology could help people, but I guess this is why we can’t have nice things.
