President Biden has upheld an International Trade Commission ruling that could result in a potential import ban on the Apple Watch over its EKG feature.
Apple insisted that it had invented EKG technology that medical device maker AliveCor just happened to have patents on. The ITC however said that Apple did not invent the tech and appeared to have based it on AliveCor’s wearable EKG tech.
In the ruling, the ITC recommended a limited exclusion order and a cease-and-desist order for Apple Watch models with EKG features. If enforced, that would mean that Apple would no longer be able to import Apple Watch with EKG capabilities into the US for sale.
