I will start making a list for linux then.
rm - ok for all ages.
grep - 18+, you can obviously use this to search for porn.
find - 18+, see grep.
reboot - ok for all ages.
echo - ok for all ages.
cat - 18+, prints the porn you found directly to your terminal.
sudo - 18+, obviously.
kill - ok for all ages. This is the US, right.
ps - 18+, no peeping at other processes.

Sound good in theory, until you realise that any teenager knows perfectly well how to trivially get around the lack of `cat` to read their terminal smut:
Simply require per-use parental consent for fopen.
I am sick and tired of these teenagers and their sharing of bash oneliners on insta.
Obviously the solution is to ban their use of all social media so those pesky bash oneliners can't be shared in the first place!

fsck - 18+ obviously can't just fsck around filesystems
rm - between -i and -r this is just a less efficient way to search for porn
reboot - you never know what the sysadmin might have loading on boot, unsafe as it could load porn
echo - ASCII art would like to have a word
kill - I know the US will have mixed feelings, but communicating with other processes might allow them to send you porn
ed - 45+ nostalgics only
rm needs to be 18+, kids could use it to cover their tracks.
The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

I'm not so sure, who knows what woke UEFI and edgy motherboard vendors are putting up as splash screens these days. And the law doesn't even consider those since they aren't part of the OS!
