When a copyright holder blocks a website from receiving revenue, that will often result in the website being taken down for business reasons (i.e. it will be down for the whole world, not just Americans. Does your site accept Paypal? Earn money from Google ads? Earn money from Amazon affiliate links? Not any more if Universal Music decides to put you out of business).
Note that the website does not need to be infringing any of the copyright holder's copyrights for this to happen: there is no right to due process.
