It just talks about visas though, so I hope all the facts are straight, since most Americans do not get a visa when they enter Thailand.
Weeding out the backpackers, visa runners and low-value tourists, I'd say. I think it will include U.S. citizens as a visa is defined as

1
: an endorsement made on a passport by the proper authorities denoting that it has been examined and that the bearer may proceed
A passport stamp is a visa.
