But if the patron went outside and left their food on a park bench? Or 
tossed it out the window of the restaurant?

Using your iBook to log onto someone else's network isn't the same as 
eating food at someone's table - there's an infinite amount of signal 
streaming out - or at least so much that any leaks would go unnoticed 
by the person who has set up the network. It's not as if someone is 
going into another person's home, plunking themselves down at a desk, 
and using the wi-fi signal.
