This is like Oracle buying Sun. Qualcomm is a famously litigious company. They'd decimate the workforce and rely on Intel's patent portfolio to make the takeover worth it

No idea who might be infringing on what, but I'm quite sure Qualcomm's lawyers would quickly figure out which companies they'll put the squeeze on. Or just throw spaghetti against the wall and see what sticks. AMD, Apple (think Rosetta), TSMC, cloud providers, etc.
