The Scouse British dialect has a nice term for this: “Geg out”. As opposed to “Fred is gegging in”, used when someone is trying to implicate themselves or become part of the group/conversation.
Someone involving themselves when they shouldn’t be? Two syllables: Geg. Out.
No idea where it comes from but I heard it a lot in my youth. Forsomereason.
They use computers, or so I’m told.
