Why is Verizon in the video title? Is this sponsored content?

Yes.
Apparently Verizon developers were dicking around in Minecraft, since they had so much free time.

You can see the individual bits flying by in real time. As opposed to modern computers, where internet runs at ludicrous speed.

Not really?
More like, they bolted on a screen-grabbing api into the minecraft client and attached a few commands to blocks.
