and extracts the following text as a script body — the dev server then fails its dependency scan with `Expected ";" but found "non"` from the words "non-allowlisted hosts", which breaks e2e. So, what this buys, so nobody reads more or less into it: blocks external `script src=` from non-allowlisted hosts blocks injected inline scripts — each one is pinned by hash blocks fetch/XHR/WebSocket exfiltration (connect-src allowlist) blocks form-action, base-uri, object-src vectors does not stop image-based exfiltration — img-src must allow https: because event media comes from arbitrary publishers' og:image The cost of hashing is that an inline script edited after the hashes are computed is silently refused by the browser. That is why the violation reporter below exists: report-uri/report-to are ignored in a meta element and Pages serves no CSP header, so violations are caught in-page and sent to PostHog instead (src/lib/csp-report.ts, #241). frame-ancestors is deliberately NOT in this string: it is ignored in a meta element and browsers log a warning about it on every page load. It lives in public/_headers instead, ready for a CDN in front of Pages. X-Frame-Options (set there too) is the clickjacking control that actually applies today. */ }

Volkswagen Displaces Amazon as Rivian's Largest Shareholder at 15.9% Stake After $1B Software Milestone Payment — VW-Rivian Electrical Architecture JV Accelerates

| Battery Revolution

Volkswagen became Rivian's largest single shareholder as of May 5, 2026, overtaking Amazon for the first time since Rivian's 2021 IPO. VW's US subsidiary purchased 62.9 million new Rivian shares on April 30 at $15.90 per share — a ~$1 billion investment that was triggered when the Rivian-VW joint venture (Rivian & Volkswagen Group Technologies, or RVGT) hit a key testing milestone for its shared electrical architecture and software platform. VW now holds 209.8 million shares (15.9%), compared to Amazon's 12.28% (which has been passively diluted — Amazon has not sold a single share). Including the latest tranche, VW has deployed ~$3.3 billion of its total $5.8 billion commitment to Rivian: an initial $1B convertible note in mid-2024, ~$1.3B at the JV's formal launch, and now this $1B equity tranche. Approximately $2.5 billion remains tied to future milestones. The JV's significance for battery technology is substantial: the shared 'Rivian Electrical Architecture' (REA) platform — designed for modular battery pack integration — will underpin next-generation VW Group and Rivian EVs. The RVGT JV represents VW's most significant bet on leveraging US EV software and architecture know-how as European gigafactory strategies face headwinds following Northvolt's bankruptcy. Rivian's NDrive operating system and battery management software integration with VW's vehicle platforms is a central deliverable of the JV.
