> The status of the bag is iffy once compensation is paid. This is at least partially addressed in the article. > “So I looked into the terms and conditions to see if me accepting compensation changed over ownership to Air Canada, and there’s nothing,” she said, adding that their bag has been “wrongfully donated.” I think this is reasonable.

At the very least, they should have some kind of publicly accessible database to list these for a while before donation.
