From what I see, it means that if the person is of the US (citizen or legal alien) that a warrant would have to be applied for.

It is very murky, but from how I read it and it looks very clear, the non-warrant surveillence cannot be applied to "US persons" which, I would assume means citizens (of course), and legal aliens.

If this were not the case, again, I argue they could have done this to Columbian drug lords, Mafiosa, or basically anyone. So I think that is why they made it clear no "US person". Everything else appears murky and is open to court interpretation, but then again, I am not a lawyer.

From your part, I believe it is saying that the "secret court" has no jurisdiction over "US persons" and therefore the warrants would have to be applied for.

Interesting points Stevo.
