I don't see what they change, the problem of SOPA is the DNS block, where your website is hosted (or registered) does not matter if all US ISPs blacklist your site in their name servers.

Well at least the rest of the world can see your website, while still censored in the US. Whereas if GoDaddy just takes out your website domain, nobody can get to it.
