That means they can essentially and legally keep track of everything that you do and give that data to whomever is authorize by the law to have it... aka the US government.

And all this WITHOUT A COURT ORDER.
ISP's could 'choose' to do this now if they felt like it. However, most prefer to play Sgt. Schultz from Hogan's Heros. There is nothing to prevent an ISP from running scans on your websites/files/domains to see if you are running anything illegal and terminate you accordingly.
