They will no will no longer throttle mobile internet to unusable speeds after data allowances are exhausted, so it is kind of a “minimum universal connection” via mobile.

It’s enough for email, chats, banking and other essentials.
I would say it’s not enough to stream a movie, which seems fair to me if you spent all the data you have for the period.
400kbps would be slow as hell, for all of those use cases. Video would be unusable, but other stuff would still be insanely slow with all the bloat in modern websites and tracking crap in apps.
I did those things just fine on my first internet connection, which was 14.4k.
When I upgraded to 54k, it was blazingly fast.
Remember we are not talking about modern comfort, we are talking a connection that is out of data. It’s okay to be annoyed.
Use an ad-blocker and suddenly it is an ok speed.
It would be horridly slow for all those things (well maybe not text-only chats)
Worked fine for me, when my connection was slower that that.
