It would be whole lot harder to find these modifications if this was on the silicon itself.
- wyldfire 8y agoThe AVGO/QCOM LBO didn't happen ostensibly because of the role 5G plays in national security, not trust issues with the design. However, I'll grant that there could be other covert reasons (nationalism, these very trust issues, etc).
