Interestingly, the rationale put forth by QCOM and the gov't is not that foreign governments would control the technology. It's that Broadcom has a habit of executing cost cutting measures.

The claim is that this would effectively reduce investment in wireless tech innovation by US companies. This would make foreign investment more effective/more likely to dominate.
