Definitely not an issue in the US anymore. T-Mobile is the last carrier to support 2G and they're shutting that down in April this year. I think most Android phones explicitly disable 2G now too because it's not secure.

Mine had it disabled by default, but still available for emergency calls, and the option to enable it.

Mine has it disabled, but available if I want to enable it (with a security warning.)
