jarfil,

The trolling comes from stuff like this:


“Non-invasive physiological sensor cover”
US US11779247B2 Abraham Mazda Kiani Masimo Corporation

  • Priority 2009-07-29
  • Filed 2022-12-20
  • Granted 2023-10-10
  • Published 2023-10-10

They were fine with selling their own watch in a “patent pending” state over 10 years after having filed a provisional application, but the moment Apple announced their own watch, they hurried to write a final application after the fact worded in a way that would make Apple infringe on it thanks to having a 10+ year old priority on it.

They’ve been pulling the same stunt a bunch of times:

Several 2023 patents, have a priority as far back as 2006!
