: Confusion over W3C POWDER standard (PICS alternative) Now that PICS is dead, I still need an easy way to tell users that my website is for mature audiences only. I intend to use PICS tags,

@Karen161

Adding to the answer above, that tag is not an example but a specific value proposed by Restricted to Adults (RTA) for tagging adult pages. Which is much simpler than both PICS and POWDER.

Hmm, it appears that these standards are both somewhat dead. And I see why, I have no desire to help the content filter authors 'classify' my site. I merely want to tag not appropriate for minors so to avoid the attack of parent groups.

This tag seems to be what the majority of sites use:

<meta name="RATING" content="RTA-5042-1996-1400-1577-RTA" />
