Re: integrity-like property

The digital signature covers the VC not the “external” resources (e.g., the schema), i.e., it protects only the uri of the schema and not the schema itself. Note that even if this an HTTPs URI still you have the same issue.

IMHO it would have been really useful to have a third (optional) property similar to the "sub-resource integrity" tag used in HTML (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Subresource_Integrity). What is your opinion? Is there any other way to provide some integrity information about external resources in the VC data model?
