    Could there be consequences for that?

    In theory, yes. In practice… Ajit Pai is a lawyer and he’s probably smart enough to avoid doing anything that is blatantly illegal. Or at least, avoid doing anything that would leave behind an evidence trail that could see him taking the fall for anything illegal.
