Their products feel simultaneously like knock offs and 5 years old all at once.
- qwtree 2y agoSeems like a good outcome. Patent trolls should occasional suffer some consequences of their actions (I know that Masimo sells actual products but they pulse oximetry patent is just silly...)
- blackeyeblitzar 2y agoMasimo basically came up with the idea of how to do it accurately long before anyone else right? Is that really trolling? I don’t recall the details but I remember thinking they actually had a legitimate claim.
