When you select a TV or Movie rating, you are selecting the highest level of program that will be allowed to be
viewed. As an example, if you select TV-PG, you are allowing programs rated TV-Y, TV-Y7, TV-G and TV-PG to be
seen and blocking programs rated TV-14 and TV-MA. If you select a movie rating of PG-13, you are allowing movies
rated G, PG and PG-13 to be seen and blocking movies rated R, NC-17 and X. When you select a TV Content
category, you will block all TV programs that have the same content category listing. As an example, if you select
to block V (Violence) at the TV-14 level, you will also block any program that has the V category listing at the TV-PG
rating level.
