--- Comment #6 from John Wilander <wilander at apple.com> ---
The Storage Access API is the only shipping way to request a cross-site identity and the prompt tells the user that their activity may be tracked by the requesting party if they grant access.

Cross-site WebAuthn would have to convey the same information since as soon as the user is identified, that identity can be shared with the first party website or stored by the third-party in first-party storage.

This is not the same as asking for permission to use device features such as camera. This is about user identity and linking of user identity across websites.

See WebKit's tracking prevention policy: https://webkit.org/tracking-prevention-policy/
