My friend likes to complain about the NSA spying on us (himself included) [View all]

He then proceeds to tell everyone on Facebook and something called Foursquare where he is having dinner, with whom he is dining with, and goes so far to post a picture of the food on his plate for every meal his family eats outside the home.

The NSA doesn't have to spy when you volunteer the food on your plate, location, and dining partners.

Derp?
