The recommendation of RFC 4193, if I understand it, is that advertisements of ULA prefixes in EBGP are "not announced", and if they happen to be announced by accident, are refused. https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4193#section-4.1.

That is in no sense a default. My primary expertise is with my former employer's equipment, but I believe this to be generally true: EBGP only advertises what it is told to, and refuses only what it is told to. Hence, I would guess that the typical configuration will not advertise a ULA in anything resembling a normal case, but will not refuse one that is advertised to it.

But the intended scope-boundary is "EBGP".
