As a foursquare and twitter user I was initially concerned. The security/privacy issue seems to only be an issue with publicly viewable twitter feeds. Since my tweets are protected, this site cannot "see" me or the posts about where I'm checking in. check out this link to the twitter page that describes the difference between public and protected accounts and how you can update the setting son your account:
