Description

Server MUST generate a Last-Modified header field in response to GET and HEAD requests.

https://solidproject.org/ED/protocol#server-last-modified-includes

Servers are strongly discouraged from exposing information beyond the minimum amount necessary to enable a feature.

https://solidproject.org/ED/protocol#exposing-information

So, the implementation should only expose the Last-Modified header when access is granted to the request target, i.e., when user or public has Read access to the resource. This is typically aligned with the 200 response.
