As an aside, I note that Verizon is squatting on address space allocated to APNIC. From the self-help web page offered to opt out of this "service" (specific to the particular hardware customers might be using, e.g., http://netservices.verizon.net/portal/link/help/item?case=c32535), they state:
[ snip example ] I believe you're reading into that too much - they're not squatting on anything in 123/8, they're just using "123.123.123" as example first octets to demonstrate the concept of changing the last octet. IE, their "standard" DNS servers always live at x.y.z.12 and their "opt-out" DNS servers for the same customers live at x.y.z.14. I suspect that the example is confusing enough that plenty of customers are making the same mistake you did in reading it, and entering "123.123.123.14", but I don't believe they're actually USING those IPs, as it is (if not clearly enough) labeled as "Example".
