Maturity Filter Effectiveness

Not tested for this profile.

Netflix maturity filter correctly enforces content boundaries in search and browse. TV-14 content (Stranger Things) is properly hidden from TV-PG profiles but visible on TV-14 profiles. The 'Stranger Things: Fireplace' ambient video appearing on the TV-PG profile suggests it may have a different/lower rating than the main show. Browse recommendations are also properly filtered per maturity level.
