I assume this is one of the states blocked by pornhub, but I’m too lazy to check.

Amusingly it's not even a sentence but a sentence fragment (I am not trying to be pedantic, since your point is valid - I assume the article is just missing an "are", but I find it funny).

“Subject” is being used as a verb here. So it’s not “subject to age verification laws,” but “subject to age verification laws.” They are subjecting, or subjugating themselves, to verification laws. It is a complete sentence. A weirdly written one, but a complete one.

Yep, they missed the verb. "...of Americans ARE subject to..." fixes it
