Sample Code:

 
Visualforce Page:
<apex:page controller=”EmployeesDataController”>
    <apex:pageBlock>
        <apex:pageBlockTable value=”{!listEmployees}” var=”emp”>
            <apex:column>{!emp.Name}</apex:column>
            <apex:column>{!emp.Age__c}</apex:column>
            <apex:column>{!emp.Above_18__c}</apex:column>
        </apex:pageBlockTable>
    </apex:pageBlock>
</apex:page>

Apex Class:
public with sharing class EmployeesDataController {
    
    public List < Employee__c > listEmployees { get; set; }
    
    public EmployeesDataController() {
        
        listEmployees = new List < Employee__c >();
        listEmployees = [ SELECT Id, Name, Age__c, Above_18__c FROM Employee__c LIMIT 100 ];
        
    }

}

If “with sharing” keyword is removed, the SOQL will run in System Mode and return all the data. It won’t obey the Restriction Rule.
