I think all network providers that offer BGP peering allow selective 
filtering on the routes they send downstream. Obviously a lot of people 
don't take them up on it (and would rather do the filtering on their end) 
but the idea and the capability is there. 

UUNet will do this for customers, and I assume MCI would too.
