First Orion Releases New Features to Its Popular Privacystar Blackberry Application
Evident with the Smartblock and Do Not Disturb features, CEO Jeff Stalnaker, of First Orion, recently stated, "SmartBlock and the Do Not Disturb text message option are great additions to our ever growing portfolio of privacy services." Updated weekly, Privacystar's Smartblock feature takes the network's most frequently blocked numbers not belonging to individuals and blocks the phone numbers across the entire community of subscribers. The Do Not Disturb feature automatically forwards all calls to voicemail, while allowing users to create personalized text messages to be sent to the harassing callers." The new features were created based upon a Customer Survey based on the features," First Orion Marketing Director Robbie Matthews stated, "You have the ability to control privacy which is empowering." Privacystar's Smartblock and Do Not Disturb features provide greater opportunity in the fight against harassing phone calls.

For only $2.99/month, subscribers of the popular Blackberry application are able to block "unknown" and "spoof" numbers, with a sync from the Privacystar web portal to the individual's cell phone. The "unknown" and "spoof" numbers can be reported to the Federal Trade Commission, with applicable dates, times, phone numbers, and actual identities of each caller. Since its inception 3 months ago, Privacystar users have made up for 10% of all nuisance call reports made to the Federal Trade Commission.
