While the majority of Internet traffic is becoming of high quality multimedia variety, also mostly generated by consumers themselves, efficient content sharing with intuitive useability and security measure in a mobile environment remains an elusive goal. In this paper, we present a Content-Centric Networking (CCN) based Virtual Private Community (VPC) service which aims at supporting intuitive content sharing experience in a secure and distributed manner. VPC is a hierarchical and closed user group which consumers themselves can easily create and manage on their own devices. In VPC architecture, consumer content is shared by VPC-based content forwarding policy which is also based on hierarchical content naming. We prototyped the VPC architecture on the consumer devices to demonstrate the potential of user-oriented and distributed consumer network platform.
