At least in the US the 2G networks have already gone. It made news for long-lived devices like cars and ebook readers that had 2G modems built-in.

Nissan Leafs used AT&T and it was shut down at the end of 2016.

It's around for a little more than a year more on T-Mobile: https://www.t-mobile.com/support/coverage/t-mobile-network-e...

Some areas were never built out with 2G but for the footprint that was always there they have not turned it off since it doesn't impact their spectrum very much. AT&T had poor spectrum planning so had to kill it off sooner to refarm the spectrum.
