In the developer tools console there is a mixed content warning:
Mixed Content: The page at 'https://media.ccc.de/v/32c3-7435-replication_prohibited#video' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure video 'http://ftp.halifax.rwth-aachen.de/ccc/congress/2015/h264-hd-web/32c3-7435-en-Replication_Prohibited.mp4'. This content should also be served over HTTPS.
The CCC built a distributed CDN, so nope, that wouldn't help: my video is loading from netcologne.de, for instance (in a 'video' element, which is appreciate, from my point of view).
For most instances of "Johnny" I've seen, I disagree. I think the barrier to wide adoption of strong crypto is UX, specifically discoverability.
Learning GPG is really really hard. Testing an assumption takes lots of thinking and many complex commands, undoing something is hard or impossible and it's never obvious how to do it, and doing something wrong can mean disaster. It's not so much "pgp is hard to use" but "pgp is hard to learn".
This article is a great example. I think I've got a pretty good understanding of how public-key crypto works, but there's no way I could have put together the steps myself, I'm just blindly following the words of the Great Ones, Keepers of the Source.

What do they release as open source code, apart from TextEdit? I am really surprised by your comparison since it seems to me that the two (bash, vim, top, netcat… and Apple's open source code) do not compare at all.
Apple "owns" LLVM which has changed our computing landscape from the bottom up in more ways than I can count. GCC was happy being stagnant until LLVM came along and GCC could finally see how awful and behind the times they had become. Now there's at least some competition again.
(competition-free platforms are never a good thing, no matter how many times you pray to your zero-to-one god)
