The Biden administration has declined to veto a ruling by the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) that bans imports of certain Apple Watch models due to a patent dispute brought by Masimo. The dispute is over the pulse reader feature of the Apple Watch, which measures the level of oxygen in the user's blood. Apple has not yet commented on the ruling, but is likely to appeal the decision. Masimo is likely to be pleased with the outcome, and it remains to be seen how Apple will respond.
