Yes, they can, but they probably are not looking.

You must receive the password from the proprietor of that network. Even supposing you by some means knew or had the password, Federal legislation (18 USC 1030) makes it unlawful to use a computer network with out permission from the owner/operator. In any event, there is not any approach we might comprehend what the visitor password for that particular community is. The default password is not any password in any respect, that's, any password you enter shall be rejected. The device is not going to receive a password except that password was once primarily configured into it. If it wasn't configured in any respect, then no password will work.

Anytime you are using a public Wi-Fi in coffee shops it is not secure, since there are no passwords to log into their free network. So whatever you do, anyone around you can see what you do and the websites you visit. However websites that use SSL (secure socket layer) that uses a encryption will not be accessible to others. You will know by a lock or a webpage that uses https://
A lot of people uses VPN a virtual private network at all public places that offers free internet access. A VPN encrypts all websites that you go to so no one else can see or access what you do.
