I need to nitpick this point:

   The reason to get the DNS provision into law is to shut 
   down websites operated from outside the United States 
   where the US does not have jurisdiction.
Could more accurately be stated as:

   The reason to get the DNS provision into law is to keep
   American's from accessing and funding websites operated 
   from outside the United States OR where the US does not 
   have jurisdiction (foreign TLDs).
The site can (and most likely will) remain up for the rest of the world. Just not those using US-based name servers and ISPs. (...IANAL)
