After Netflix pulled a promo for "Stranger Things" showing a scene in the current season premiere episode depicting violence to children and added a "we didn't know what was coming when we made this episode last year" advisory to the episode, Disney+ has placed a similar warning on the first two episodes of "Obi-Wan Kenobi" that dropped overnight Friday (pointing out that it was the resolve of a past "Star Wars" saga plot point)--but not at the top of the program, but in the "Details" part of the home screen for the episodes (and supposedly not for those subscribers like me who've indicated they'll watch "mature content," a move that allowed them to put the racier Netflix Marvel series on the streamer):

I logged into D+ for the first time in a long time and had to go through a process in order to enable TV-MA content. I was wondering why they did that.
