Apple Watch Fiasco: Retailers Face Cyberattack Crunch as Apple Races to Tweak Software and Pull Series 9 and Ultra 2 Amid ITC Ban

Apple will stop selling certain versions of its Apple Watch in the United States due to a patent dispute with medical company Masimo. The dispute centers around Apple's use of Masimo's pulse oximeter patent in its Apple Watch Series 6 lineup. Apple faces the possibility of a ban on these models unless changes are made or the ruling is vetoed by President Joe Biden. Other models may also be impacted if an import ban is approved. Apple plans to comply with the ruling and is taking steps to make the affected models available again as soon as possible.
