How did the outcome of spanish-american war affect people of cuba and puerto rico?

The outcome of the Spanish-American War (resulting in a US victory) made it so that the people of Cuba & Puerto Rico came under the US rule as procterates. This meant that while they aren't "colonies", they were under the US government & had to obey US rules.
