As anyone can simply download and start using (information on how to do it) is quite enough, you may have many cases were companies do use an Open Source software without "leaking" or "leaving traces" about that.
Yes, I agree. These kind of questions are really hard to answer. During the last ten years, acceptance of Open Source in production use for
commercial companies have changed worldwide. Open Source proxys like OpenSIPS and the relatives (SER, Kamailio) and other code bases
like resiprocate are taking the market together with media servers like Janus, Asterisk and FreeSwitch.

The interesting part would be Open Source platforms vs commercial and non-Open platforms. But no, I am not either aware of such data.

Yes

If you widen the scope to “Open Source proxys” I would say that SIP as a protocol is making headway in interesting
areas. SIP is part of a European standard for live radio broadcast. It’s also part of a standard for air traffic communication,
connecting radio masts to a flight control tower.

I’ve built solutions for both of this standards with Open Source SIP software.

So it’s no longer just about “telecommunications” - SIP and the open source software is starting to deliver on
the original SIP vision - a realtime communication platform for Internet users.

To stay in telecommunications there are many presentations from our various conferences that will
give you ideas on where and how it is used. The new black is of course Open Source mobile network
platforms - after ISDN and SS7 this is the new interesting area to cover with Open solutions.
