Qualcomm Cambridge

Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

The submission describes Qualcomm Cambridge, a globally significant R&D hub for Bluetooth and IoT technologies, but appears to be submitted under a user alias ('BlazeBlade') with lazy or placeholder data (e.g., revenue field). While the underlying entity possesses world-class utility, reach, and innovation (Billions of devices), the submission quality is extremely poor, lacking specific verifiable evidence for the 'BlazeBlade' project title and containing nonsense metrics. The score reflects the massive verifiable impact of Qualcomm, heavily penalized for the submission's lack of professionalism and clarity.
