That's really not true. Amazon require that you are an adult in order to create an account, and you need an account in order to download material to a Kindle. I don't actually know of ANY bookstore, physical or online, which restricts access to material that is unsuitable for children. Rightly or wrong, unlike films and video games, books do not carry content classifications, and it's really not a bookstore's responsibility to create such a classification system.
