Will anything come of it? Absolutely not unless there is an incident, you hit something on the ground after landing, who cares, your device will be looked at and records will be pulled. This has happened to 121 crews in the past and licenses were suspended for weeks/months because of it. Worst case you get fired like the AA F/O in JFK.

Fo the CA's who are playing dumb, just an FYI but I personally spoke to another CA whose FO posted an inflight pic on FB, took it down within 30 minutes, and the FAA still found it. FAA came after the CA, luckily nothing ended up happening but it caused a lot of heartache.

This isn’t how it works in modern iOS…the MAC does change but not enough to prevent tracking. It’s highly likely your MAC is the same for weeks unless you take measures to force it to change.

are people so bad at being pilots they need to worry about the straw that breaks their backs?
JFC do your job and do it well and read book at cruise. Its literally not that hard.

I can finally have my own thoughts back, let the mind relax, read a book, plan my next move in life. And for those that hypothetically do get online, just be smart and be willing to accept the consequences if there is an accident on your flight and your phone is subpoened. And for those that tape their cameras and put tin foil around their heads, well, you be you.
