The competition between wearable device companies Fitbit and Jawbone is heating up. Jawbone recently accused Fitbit of violating patents and poaching its employees in an effort to steal trade secrets. But the U.S. International Trade Commission just ruled that Fitbit didn’t misappropriate anything.
The ruling is obviously good news for Fitbit, although Jawbone wants to review the ruling. If the commission had decided against Fitbit, it could have banned the company from importing any of its products into the U.S., severely disrupting momentum in the fast-growing market.
