Does btsync use utp?

Got an invite for btsync today and started playing with it.

Seeing the config option for upload bandwidth I was surprised not to use a "set automatically" option.

Does btsync not use http://en.wikipedia....nsport_Protocol? That would seem to be ideal as it could be allowed to use the network as needed and not interfere with other local traffic like movie streaming.

I tried to search the forums and look at the FAQ but I didn't see anything about this.

Also with the linux version I was surprised it was listening on 0.0.0.0:8888 by default so anyone on the local network can see by shares and get the secrets.
