That is a problem, I agree. But I still feel like it would be beneficial if there was some standard on HTTP or other protocols which could limit user access based on PG-rating instead of everyone developing their own approach. It could also be something like robots.txt, but for PG-rating, where client would do the verification.

And, as I already mentioned, that should be strictly local only setting and only for parental/guardian controlling what minors can and can't do with their devices.
