Huh. I recall hearing about this going away a while back on major US networks - I think General Motors had a service built into their cars for some years that was affected, among others. Surprised to learn it's still in use elsewhere.

@athayanezant a previous protocol to 4G and 5G
It was kept in use due to having a better reach than 4G and 5G and thus being more useful for emergency services.
Some countries used 3G for that purpose instead, but 3G had worse voice quality, which is why 2G was kept instead
It's going to make older phones useless, once it's shut off

hmm.... I'm not sure which older phones you're talking about
because 3G is already supported since the first Android.
Unless someone is still using Symbian
old IoT devices, tho
But I'm sure those already replaced if the shutdown already planned, no?

oh.. You meant that one. I thought it was about something else.
My mind's wondering elsewhere I guess...
