Methods, systems, and media for presenting content based on a generic rating

1. A method for presenting content based on a generic content rating, the method comprising:

receiving one or more search results corresponding to a search query;

determining location-specific content ratings associated with the one or more received search results;

converting, using a hardware processor, the location-specific content ratings to generic content ratings associated with the one or more search results by transmitting an indicator of the location-specific content ratings to a server and receiving, from the server, the generic content ratings; and

causing modified search results to be presented, wherein at least one search result is inhibited from being presented based on the generic content ratings.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a selection of content from the presented modified search results;

determining a location-specific content rating associated with the selected content;

converting the location-specific content rating to a generic content rating associated with the selected content;

determining that the selected content is not to be blocked based at least in part on the generic content rating associated with the selected content and a user-selected generic content rating restriction; and

in response to determining that the selected content is not to be blocked, causing the selected content to be presented.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein converting the location-specific content ratings associated with the one or more received search results to generic content ratings associated with the one or more search results further comprises determining an age suitable for viewing the one or more search results.

4. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:

determining that the selected content is to be blocked based at least in part on the generic content rating associated with the selected content and the user-selected generic content rating restriction;

requesting authorization to present the selected content; and

in response to receiving authorization to present the selected content, causing the selected content to be presented.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining that a portion of the at least one search result is to be blocked based on the generic content ratings; and

modifying the at least one search result by removing the portion of the at least one search result.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving a user-selected generic content rating restriction from a user interface.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein a user-selected generic content rating restriction is stored in association with a user account, and wherein the selected content is presented in association with the user account.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining that the at least one search result is to be blocked based on the generic content ratings associated with the one or more search results and a user-selected generic content rating restriction.

9. The method of claim 8 , wherein the modified search results are generated by removing the at least one search result from the one or more search results in response to determining that at least one search result is to be blocked.

10. A system for presenting content based on a generic content rating, the system comprising:

a hardware processor that is programmed to:

receive one or more search results corresponding to a search query;

determine location-specific content ratings associated with the one or more received search results;

convert the location-specific content ratings to generic content ratings associated with the one or more search results by transmitting an indicator of the location-specific content ratings to a server and receiving, from the server, the generic content ratings; and

cause modified search results to be presented, wherein at least one search result is inhibited from being presented based on the generic content ratings.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the hardware processor is further programmed to:

receive a selection of content from the presented modified search results;

determine a location-specific content rating associated with the selected content;

convert the location-specific content rating to a generic content rating associated with the selected content;

determine that the selected content is not to be blocked based at least in part on the generic content rating associated with the selected content and a user-selected generic content rating restriction; and

in response to determining that the selected content is not to be blocked, cause the selected content to be presented.

12. The system of claim 11 , wherein converting the location-specific content ratings associated with the one or more received search results to generic content ratings associated with the one or more search results further comprises determining an age suitable for viewing the one or more search results.

13. The system of claim 11 , wherein the hardware processor is further programmed to:

determine that the selected content is to be blocked based at least in part on the generic content rating associated with the selected content and the user-selected generic content rating restriction;

request authorization to present the selected content; and

in response to receiving authorization to present the selected content, cause the selected content to be presented.

14. The system of claim 10 , wherein the hardware processor is further programmed to:

determine that a portion of the at least one search result is to be blocked based on the generic content ratings; and

modify the at least one search result by removing the portion of the at least one search result.

15. The system of claim 10 , wherein the hardware processor is further programmed to receive a user-selected generic content rating restriction from a user interface.

16. The system of claim 10 , wherein a user-selected generic content rating restriction is stored in association with a user account, and wherein the selected content is presented in association with the user account.

17. The system of claim 10 , wherein the hardware processor is further programmed to determine that the at least one search result is to be blocked based on the generic content ratings associated with the one or more search results and a user-selected generic content rating restriction.

18. The system of claim 17 , wherein the modified search results are generated by removing the at least one search result from the one or more search results in response to determining that at least one search result is to be blocked.

19. A non-transitory computer-readable medium containing computer executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform a method for presenting content based on a generic content rating, the method comprising:

receiving one or more search results corresponding to a search query;

determining location-specific content ratings associated with the one or more received search results;

converting the location-specific content ratings to generic content ratings associated with the one or more search results by transmitting an indicator of the location-specific content ratings to a server and receiving, from the server, the generic content ratings; and

causing modified search results to be presented, wherein at least one search result is inhibited from being presented based on the generic content ratings.
