Cheezburger has been credited with bringing Internet culture and memes to the mainstream. Ben credits the success of his company to the users and fans who create the content. His goal, and Cheezburger’s mission, is to make the world happy for 5-minutes a day.

Is this enough for a search warrant?
Look for this if the picture doesn’t load.
Mr. Huh you have this on your website, being a millionaire shouldn’t you have people who will check this stuff and not allow it on the site, or is kiddie porn ok?
This site is one of his many sites.

This is not even funny? As a mother I find it very offensive. Child abuse is never ok even if some idiot tattoos it on himself. IT should be removed.
Most of the stuff you have on this site is gross but it doesn’t bother me, but this should not be on you website.
Hi Jenny,
The image of that tattoo was already removed by our moderation team well before I read your comment. Our system allows any user to flag an image if they find it offensive. I know it’s sometimes emotional to see an image that offends you, but please don’t jump to conclusions.
Thanks for letting us know.
