It doesn't matter what it is defined to. The ISPs will just rebrand the name of the service and offer what ever speed they want.
ISPs control the internet speed not a definition.
The main reason for defining "broadband" is so that all the players can line up at the public trough and compete for moneys stolen from the taxpayer.
