restrictions?

I would also imagine they may restrict excessive uploading to other verizon hosts only. That 15mb upload on fios is HUGE. The problem is that with downloading you are limited by hard drive size and actually having to FIND what you want. But with uploading you can just download one torrent and let it seed for a week and max out your 15mb upload the whole time.

local bandwidth is almost never the issue, it's the transit/peering costs which cause the ISPs to hate P2P

if it's all done locally, they wouldn't care if you kept your pipe full 24/7

Maybe they will use Sandvine to make sure you can't peer off the Verizon net.
