Ok I have a question on the topic.

Assume that I go to various restaurants during the month and whip out my iPhone and use the free wi-fi. Mostly I will check email or use Taptalk to check into Pelican. Is there a reasonable danger that someone can "see" what is on my phone or what I am doing?

What if I went to my bank's web site and check my checking account?

If I log onto my router I can see what devices are connected. I still can't "see" what those devices are doing. And I can't look at the other devices at all. I assume there is hacker software out there that would let a user to see the files on the other devices. Is that a likely thing?
