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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/webchat). 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](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/call-me-maybe) (rather than get unexpected flashes).
