High speed internet is a market not just internet access. Email might not care that your on a DSL connection but a streamer can’t generally use DSL as a substitute.

They mean VDSL; that's 100~200 Mbit down and 10~24~50 Mbit up.
Which is laughably bad in 2025.
VDSL2 can hit those speeds in optimal conditions, but at the end of last year ~14% of Germans have internet under 10Mbps and ~17% where 10-30Mbps.
