What’s that about the SpO2?
Google didn't clone anything, and instead acquired a smaller company (Fitbit) that had the tech they wanted to put in their watches. So new Pixel Watches still have a working SpO2 sensor.

Also, while it’s suspicious circumstances, we don’t know Apple stole the tech. The lawsuits are still ongoing (after mis-trialing) but Apple lost the appeal to sell the products during the trial. To make it even messier, courts (with a jury) have found that Masimo copied Apple about some design aspects. This is probably one of the messiest corporate litigations in a long time - Apple isn't known for making deals.
Note that the verdict is under appeal.
