In such cases, the external location of a resource SHOULD be clearly specified in the `resourceURI` field within `linkedResourceMetadata`. If the resource’s address or availability changes, this MAY require a DID Document metadata update to reflect the new location, subject to the rules of the corresponding DID Method.

If a **parent** DID is deactivated, the status of its associated DID-Linked Resources must be clearly defined by the DID Method. It is RECOMMENDED that child resources automatically inherit the deactivated status of the parent DID. This ensures that resources can no longer be dereferenced or trusted under the assumption that they are still associated with an active DID.

This architectural decision ensures backward compatibility with existing DID resolvers and DID Documents, which are not required to interpret DID-Linked Resources in order to perform DID resolution. Systems that understand DID-Linked Resources can leverage the `linkedResourceMetadata` field to retrieve and process associated artifacts, while maintaining interoperability with resolvers that only support core DID operations.

Resource Deactivation or Deprecation {#resourcedeactivation}
DID Methods MAY support additional metadata properties that indicate the deactivation or deprecation status of a resource. This allows resource publishers to signal that a given version (or all versions) of a resource is no longer valid, should not be used, or has been replaced.
