Well, it can block websites outside the US from being shown in the US, but it can't make Canada, for example, block a website. But if they took down YouTube, for instance, nobody else would be able to access it unless someone outside the states maintained it.

The problem is that many international sites have ties to US run sites like Paypal, for example. A court order could be issues for Paypal to cut ties with said site, crippling it. The wording of the bill is too broad and that's why it is such an overbearing idea.
