The concept of a smart ring shouldn't be patentable, and maybe it isn't im not sure. IP laws are really broken, all laws are but I think IP even more so.

Exactly, should apple be allowed to patent a phone with a rectangular touch screen. A basic broad idea like this shouldn't be something that's allowed to be patented

I've patented the color blue. Anyone who wants to use blue will have to pay me royalties.

Anyone remember the vantablack bs?
