Apple sued over atrial fibrillation optical sensor in Apple Watch
Methinx the good doctor is about to undergo a valuable lesson in the huge cavernous difference between filing a patent and actually having a valid one.
These devices have been around for yonks - I know 'cause my a-fib was monitored using one way back in the late 90s.
Prior art is gonna kick this one to the curb. -

Implies the action of new submissions.
Besides, Apple do this all the time - this is not a new policy - it’s simply a clarification on which version is now required. -
VMware, VirtualBox tools impacted by macOS Catalina memory leaks
WarrenBuffduckh said:One would assume that a mutli-billion dollar spending, overequipped test lab would extensively test its OS with the most cpu/memory intensive apps and environments before shipping it as a Pro-class product.
Apple currently ships beta quality software - despite or thanks to its public alpha program.
Let us know when you've actually been involved in writing an operating system used by hundreds of thousands of apps by millions of people around the world across a huge swath of hardware configurations.
Until then your criticsm is pointless.

MemoryWeb sues Apple over Photos app 'Places' and 'People' tech
With the first patent issued 2017 I suspect this’ll go nowhere fast and fail at the “Prior art” hurdle. This sort of application has been around along time - much earlier than 2017.
Hell, I used Picasa for just exactly this purpose - and not only did that start life in the early 2000s, Google had killed it by 2016: Such facts suspiciously absent in the patent filings.
Not only that but Software Patents are hard to enforce: for these to be enforceable they be it need to check the “abstract idea” and/or include “transformative” claims.
These patents do neither - in fact their very essence is based upon the existing EXIF data tags that have been around for honks now.
My guess is this company is getting short on funds and are looking for a cash injection. This action will hopefully have the inverse effect and force these scummy idiots into bankruptcy. -
