Ms Adams' announcement included a push to "capture on-demand content and ensure it meets classification and content standards." The Broadcasting Standards Authority does not accept complaints about internet-only content such as Netflix, Lightbox etc. "The series carries an adult rating as well as graphic content warnings preceding specific episodes, along with an after-show and companion website with additional resources. • The BSA will only accept complaints about live-streamed content if that content has also been broadcast in New Zealand on television or radio as well. • Unregulated in NZ, Netflix's 13 Reasons Why features graphic rape and suicide scenes.
