Apple prepares to enable sideloading and App Store changes in EU
avon b7 said:rob53 said:Good luck Europe. Prepare to be controlled by your government requiring loading of government-sponsored malware tracking your every movement without any need for a warrant. The first third-party app storefront will be controlled by your local police force, requiring every citizen to load government specific software. In many cases you won't even know they're loading monitoring software, you'll be required to load a government app that includes voter ID, driver's license, etc. Everything in one app will be presented as software everyone needs for taxes and every other government process. Guess what's going to also be loaded in the background .... yep, monitoring software so they know where you're at and what you're doing. Have fun!! -

Apple's stripping out blood oxygen sensing from Apple Watch enough to skirt import ban

That being said, I hope Masimo gets reimbursed for their troubles.Masimo has become a bit of a troll and it seems the ITC has over reached on their decision.From iMore, Florian Mueller is a patent expert and legal expert has written, “Apple sometimes engages in bullying, but the ITC’s attack is gratuitous, disingenuous and irresponsible,” noting the ITC’s own record shows that Apple created the disputed pulse oxymetry technology independently and that Masimo “tactically designed the patents-in-suit after Apple’s independent innovation, and more than 10 years after the original applications, in order to read on the relevant Apple Watch feature.”I think Masimo should get 'rewarded' for the trouble they have caused themselves and their shareholders LOL. They have spent 100 million on this and they only make 120 million a year in profit!
I must disagree that Apple created that technology independently, considering they poached talent from Masimo and applied for patents the very same week that the new staff joined, you don't develop new tech that quickly.
