Re: Status of First-Party Sets

I have went over the doc @ https://github.com/WICG/first-party-sets
And I think competion/privacy concern are related to this section
https://github.com/WICG/first-party-sets#clearing-site-data-on-set-transitions

Consider the following scenario:
Suppose we have company A and B. Where
- Company B is bought by A,
- Company B's site wasn't a member nor an owner of FPT
- After acquisition company A made company B site as a member.

As my understanding at this case site data of company B won't be cleared.
Or am I missing something?,

And if that is the case then, as a user of company B site, I expect to have
a clear indication or option whether to choose to share or not. The
document does mention UI indication but it doesn't strictly or
explicitly implies that the user would have an option to accept or refuse.

Best,
Ghassan
