They don't but I don't think you can stop them from learning all the
routes from their area.  If you want to be able to pick and choose what
they announce and what they receive, use BGP and your choice of
prefix-lists/route-maps/distribute-lists, etc.

If it's totally stubby, aren't the access routers unable to propogate
customer routes into area 0?
