Basically all those websites will get shut down. People on facebook will share music videos (that are copyrighted) and youtube is pretty much all copyrighted content.

it means any site that provides URL's to sites that host pirated software/movies/music can be shut down by the government
which can also be expanded to any site that allows user supplied content, like facebook
basically, it can lead to government censorship

it means... like everything the government gets their hands on, they abuse and corrupt! They will be able to dictate whatever terms they see fit as necessary... to everyone!!!

americans think that all music , softwares , movies are there creativity . so , they need copyright so that , it wont get for free . have to pay . it bill passed , enthu will be lost . coz all data will be copyright , mainly youtube videos .

Listen,
Nothing will get shutdown (maybe torrents)
But there will be a lot of censorship! All the video on youtube which have copyrighted information will be gone!
If you make a video with a song which has copyright (eg-Mockingbird) and upload it online will be deleted
The freedom of speech will be gone!
