On a side note: Qualcomm is the top patent filer in LTE domain before Intel, Samsung, and Ericsson. [1] https://www.greyb.com/top-50-innovative-companies-of-4g-lte/

patents are basically a form of currency now. sad.

edit: or rather, patents are the money, licensing is the currency.

To me they look more and more like the warheads of a MAD setup.

You're right on both side. Parents are currency when it comes to occupying a market or deterring competitors.

This seems quite obvious now, looking at how much Qualcomm is involved in IoT.

I'm surprised to hear that LG is leading Intel though.
