Users' Privacy a Priority on ECDC's Vir2o Social Media Network

Privacy will always be in the users' hands on the new social media
platform, Vir2o (http://www.vir2o.com/), according to executives
with its parent company, East Coast Diversified Corporation (OTCQB:
ECDC). Thanks in part to the network's proprietary nVite software,
Vir2o members will always be in control of whom they interact with
-- whether it be while sharing photos, watching streaming movies
together or online shopping with each other in real time.
Vir2o's nVite technology helps users remain in control of their
privacy, only sharing what they want to share, and always deciding
on which social circles see what content. While most social media
networks default to sharing content with everyone, each posting or
activity on Vir2o allows the user to assign an access level:
public, private or "Invitation Only." Having access to a user's
timeline, profile wall or online postings does not automatically
grant access to that user's private rooms. And, even when granted
access to private rooms, users can still keep content private
within that room.
"Unlike other existing social networks that always seem to be
aggravating members over constantly changing privacy settings, one
of Vir2o's core promises is to always keep the user experience
forefront," said Kayode Aladesuyi, chairman and chief executive
officer of East Coast Diversified Corp. "On Vir2o, you'll never
need to worry about your aunt, boss or prospective employer seeing
your pictures better suited for just your friends."
