“A privacy tool so simple, even your grandmother can use it”

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Social Fortress today announced the launch of their ground-breaking privacy platform for use on Google+, Facebook, Facebook mobile, Outlook, and Thunderbird. “This will change the way we protect ourselves from predators, identity theft, unwanted advertising, hackers, nosy neighbors, or bosses. It will prevent governments and corporations from snooping into our private lives,” said Social Fortress Spokesman Jason Evans.

Social Fortress is the only privacy tool that operates on the newly launched Google+, giving Google+ users an opportunity to protect their messages and photos from day one on that social network. There would be nothing for privacy snoopers to steal. Even Google itself would not be able to use the private information from the posts of someone using Social Fortress.

Social Fortress operates without changing the user experience at all. Other privacy tools require confusing extra clicks or visits to websites. With Social Fortress, the product is installed and working after a simple one-click download. Once installed, Social Fortress operates seamlessly with a wide variety of communications tools. “The genius behind this product is the ease-of-use,” said Evans. “It is a privacy tool that is so simple, even your grandmother can use it.”

“Privacy is very much a civil rights issue,” says International human rights advocate John Silva. “The average American has no idea how much individual personal information and activity they are sharing with a whole myriad of companies. Social Fortress allows the average person to take control of their privacy from Boston to Beijing. I am eager to see this product spread around the globe.”

Consumers who want to protect their personal data can do so for free with Social Fortress. They merely visit SocialFortress.com to download the product. “We made Social Fortress free because we feel privacy protection is so important in this age of identity and information theft,” said Evans.

Social Fortress Protection is available to anyone with Firefox or Chrome internet browsers with support for Internet Explorer in the works. It also works for mobile users who want to access their Facebook account through their phone. Visit SocialFortress.com for a free download.
