This is definitely the case.  Most of this stuff is probably being recycled into raspberry pi servers and iPhones at this point.  There are probably some still in use.  ISP’s in remote areas for example have to squeeze every useable minute out of their gear so I wouldn’t be surprised to see some of it still out there.  It’s hard to finance a 6 figure equipment refresh if you only have 1000 subscribers.
