I’ve now seen several posts about an Apple ”smart ring” for couples making the rounds? I believe the original source for this is the satire site Faking News. They wrote this just after the fall Apple Event in 2016: #AppleRing web.archive.org/web/20160903172117/http://www.fakingnews.firstpost.com/technology/apple-launch-smart-engagement-ring-september-17274Permalink On twitter.com

At the same time, it is true that Apple started filing patents for smart ring concepts in 2015. appleinsider.com/articles/20/07/30/apple-advancing-research-on-smart-ring-concept-for-wireless-device-controlOn twitter.com

As it turns out, the image being used in the misleading tweets is actually much older than 2016. It dates back to at least 2007! appleinsider.com/articles/22/02/02/no-apple-isnt-making-a-paired-wedding-ring-set-to-spy-on-a-spousePermalink On twitter.com
