A domain name server(DNS) is what leads you to a particular website, For example when u type http://news.ycombinator.com its forwarded to your ISP DNS and from there it is forwarded to the IP of Hacker news. This new act if passed will have let them have control over all the DNS servers of ISP's. That means the site which they dont want you to see get blocked easily.
