I just read about it as well and posted on it just a second ago. I'm not in favor of the FTC's actions against Qualcomm. They are different than Google or Facebook. Qualcomm is fully within their rights as a holder and defender of IP. Especially, when it comes to 5G, we need to be VERY careful. I used to work in tech and the stakes are as high as they come with 5G. It's not just about technology and who wins the next economic battlefield. If China wins 5G and their systems pervade Western Civilization, then you can say goodbye to all of our other IP, because China has demonstrated no restraint in stealing whatever they want. 5G will enable them to steal everything else they want, if their platforms are embedded in all of our networks. Some things must rise to the level of national security concerns, if we care about the continued existence of the US as a relatively free Republic. 5G is exactly that...a national security concern. Qualcomm must be left alone and Huawei, which is a criminal enterprise and front for the Chinese cyber command, must be held accountable for their actions, and prohibited from dominating western networks. That's my position on that topic.
