The regex module is intended to replace the re module, so its default behaviour is the same: in Python 2, regexes default to matching ASCII, and in Python 3, they default to matching Unicode.

If you want to use a regex on a Unicode string in Python 2 then you need to set the Unicode flag, either by providing the UNICODE flag or by putting "(?u)" in the regex itself.
