I don't think that's a fair assumption. A few providers I talked to
for a security current practiced document I am writing said they were
deploying it between BGP peers and I recently asked for more
clarification from some individuals to ensure I had correct info with
respect to vendors. There is some support in some J boxes and also
support in C boxes. I didn't get specific detail how it was
deployed, just that is was.

Then is it fair to assume that operators are not using it?

I would like to know if operators use GTSM techniques with BGP and

Is anything done by the operators here?
We'd love to use it but unfortunately the J vendor doesn't support it
very well even on T-series (if it supports it at all, not quite
sure..).
Enhancement Requests haven't gotten through, but maybe gripes on nanog
will :-(
