Can your browsing history be seen if you use Wi-Fi?

Say I use Safeway, mc Donald's, Walmart big companies Wi-Fi on my iphone. Can my browsing history be seen if it is requested by court. What about if I troll with a fake account on Breitbart or ign about Donald Trump.

Put it this way. No matter what you do if they want you bad enough they will get you

For there own protection, companies offering free Wi-Fi may have a server between their Wi-Fi and the Internet. This server can log the IP address of any site that you connect to, it can also log anything that you do that is sent in plain text. This could all be logged with the time and the hardware MAC address of your specific device (iPhone).

The companys' ISPs will also log the IP addresses that have been used over the Internet connection. In many countries they have to do this by law. ISP's generally will not release logs without a court order or similar authority.

Websites such as Breitbart may also log details of your device. There are ways that sites can interrogate a device to find out its details such as its IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) number for a phone or the motherboard serial number for a PC (as used by Microsoft to check licence entitlement). This means that even if you troll from a 'fake' account then you can still be traced.

If they authorities want to find you, they will.
