I think the blocking should be on your side. The Internet is meant to be free. Want to keep porn away from yourself or kids? Install an extension, or get one of those services that automatically blocks it.
The same way, we should block on device/user level. Afraid your kids will watch it on their phones? Okay, cool, let's provide that kind of blocking at a cellular provider level or even at a phone level (I'm sure Safari or Chrome could implement blockers). We should blacklist rather than whitelist.
I think the best way to deal with "accidentally" viewing something is require a "popup" (think modal rather than traditional popup) that asks you if you are 18 or above and warn you of the content which a ton of sites already do. Or implement a simple HTTP header that tells your browser that you're accessing a site that's not safe for minors.
