I mean to say, is it really going to be law that if you are a USA webmaster you have to have all sorts of records, yet webmasters in other countries will be able to do what they want?

No, I think other nations are watching and learning as I'm sure most would like to put a stop to CP as well, and will eventually adapt their own rules.
No 2 nations have the exact same laws and therefore "unfair competition from the rest of the world" is kind of a moot point. As was stated in another thread, one nations allows beastiality, that doesn't mean that it's not fair that the rest can't too.
And the new law does focus on the US, but it's a law that is intended for "the greater good" or at least, they'd have you believe. So if your domain is registered in the US, if you do processing in the US, if you host in the US or you so much as do business with someone in the US.... you WILL be affected by this.
