Nobody knows the scope of this... could anyone dealing with a US company be subject to the US law in this matter? Will sponsors only deal with companies that are 100% 2257 compliant even on free feeder sites and TGPs?

Sponsors? Anyone?

I think it's too early to tell exactly how affiliate programs would react. I think it depends on exactly what gets passed. I see one solution for affiliate programs to not allow affiliates to download & host their own content, but to rather only link to images hosted by the program. That would allow affiliate programs the ability to track where each piece of their content is. The next step would be to provide the locations to some type of 2257 file that is password protected & somehow manned by someone in cases where affiliates are legitimately contacted & requested to provide 2257 info.

That solution above has some issues, but I see it as being a quick fix if all the regulations pass as proposed.
