The V-Chip will automatically block certain categories that are more restrictive. For
example, if you block
TV-Y
category, then
TV-Y7
will automatically be blocked. Similarly,
if you block the
TV-G
category, then all the categories in the young adult group will be
blocked (
TV-G, TV-PG, TV-14
and
TV-MA
). The sub-ratings (
D, L, S, V
) work together
similarly.
The V-chip will automatically block certain categories that are ‘More restrictive’. For example, if you block
L
sub-rating in
TV-
PG
, then the
L
sub-ratings in
TV-14
and
TV-MA
will automatically be blocked.
