Jon Oringer (born May 2, 1974) is an American programmer, photographer, and billionaire businessman, best known as the founder and CEO of Shutterstock, a stock media company headquartered in New York City.[1] Oringer started his career while a college student in the 1990s, when he created "one of the Web's first pop-up blockers."[1][2] He went on to found about ten small startups[3] that used a subscription method to sell "personal firewalls, accounting software, cookie blockers, trademark managers," and other small programs.[1]
