This is true. However, it still does not stop the directly connected AS'
from using your AS as a transit, it will only stop the AS' beyond those
directly connected ones from seeing your routes. If those remote AS' had
default routes to the directly connected AS', your AS may still be used as a
transit AS by the directly connected ones. The only way to be sure your AS
will not become a transit it to make sure that only routes that originate
inside your AS are advertised to other AS'.

To comment on the other comment, it does not make any difference how you
advertise those routes. Route maps are just a tool to help you filter and
manipulate attributes.
