I don't see what difference this would make. U.S. spies & “law” enforcement only work by their own rules anyway (not the rule of law) and they don't give a rodent's backside for the written law of any country, including the U.S. itself.
This seems to be aimed at VPN & Tor users inside the US.

shouldn't such things be contested in international court of justice first?Isn't it considered breach of sovereignty for other nations?
Since when does the US care about the International Court of Justice?
"The United States accepts the court's jurisdiction only on a case-by-case basis"
And who is going to enforce this court?
Do you believe people in other countries do care if they are hacked by NSA, FBI or whatever? In the end they are hacked by the US and most citizens of the US seem to believe that this is ok.
If the FBI needs the ability to invade foreign computers, it should have to seek a court order requesting the military (eg, the NSA) compromise those computers.
