It's not broken. Taunt is only supposed to work on mobs below your level. It never works on mobs equal to or greater than your level.
I was unable to find in-era evidence to support that this should be the case, but that's the way it works here at the moment, for sure.

I have been able to hold aggro on my warrior most of the time by using good hate proc weapons or by using high-ratio weapons, as well as by abusing Taunt on blue/green mobs.
Secondly, we need to stop calling things "broken" merely because they don't do what you expect. Most of the time, it's not broken; it just sucks. |
Taunt is complicated.
For most of a warrior's life, he can only taunt mobs below his level.
Exception 1: Until November 2000, it was not possible to taunt 50+ mobs whatsoever.

Taunt: Increased effectiveness above level 50. Previously, creatures above level 50 could not be taunted by means of the taunt skill. Now, most creatures below the character's level can now be successfully taunted. As a note, the chance to taunt a creature above 50th level is smaller than that of a creature below 50th.

Exception 2: In Velious, level 60 warriors got a small chance to taunt 60-65 mobs.

Level 60 players with the taunt skill will now have a chance to
taunt creatures that are level 60 to 65. Previously, players could only taunt creatures below their level.
