It won't be long before the bittorrent client authors figure out how P4P is accomplishing this and enable the option themselves.
While Verizon's probably patented their method (everyone patents everything nowadays), it's not hard to count the hops to a destination, or look up the owner of the peer's netblock, or even guess based only on latency.
