[summary: saying "allow unrated sites" would allow unrated obscure
'naughty' sites to still go through, and "disallow unrated sites" would
most likely prevent valid places.]

The latter would probably be the only acceptible choice for those
protecting their young'ins. The problem then becomes a lack of data
points - a demand - which could be solved by market forces. Ideally the
lack of data points could be mitigated by the community working together
- i.e., the parents can review content on their own (late at night, after
the kids have gone to bed) and submit SOAPs which could be combined and
weighed, either under the umbrella of the larger SOAP accumulator or on
their own.
