unconstitutional

Of course its unconstitutional. Any private company could do this. The government can not. I expect if a democrat gets in office the FCC is going to loose its head really quick.

PBS is not run by the government.

Censorship is a slippery slope, however. If this is a US Gvmt project, IMO they should not censor content but instead provide free tools to end users so that parents may control what their children see on the internet. A simple logon page can display the tool's download/implementation information.
