18 is a nice number to default to when you can't think of anything else. For most countries, it's the age you get to vote, get a driver's license, allowed to drink, etc.

If a government had the resources and political will, it could do a color coding scheme for classifying reading and audio video material and you need to apply for a reader's license for certain restricted material. Then probably you need to qualify through psych tests and interviews every few years. For example, green means anybody can read, red means you need a license, yellow means you can read it with the permission/supervision of a red license-holder.

Just some musing I had over the weekend...
