Chatroulette is trying to clean up its image with its genital-recognition algorithm that is currently in the works. The software will be able to detect penises in order to limit the amount of naughty bits that end up on the video chatting site. This is all part of an attempt by Chatroulette's founder Andrey Ternovskiy to procure more investors.
I suspect some of their present demographic will drop, but the hope is that the "genital-recognition algorithm" will incite new users to use the website and actually meet and talk with people (rather than get unexpected flashes).
