IANAL, and I don't speak for Apple, but as far as I can tell, the part about Apple is nonsense.

CoreFoundation is open source: https://github.com/opensource-apple/CF

libdispatch is open source: https://apple.github.io/swift-corelibs-libdispatch/post/libd...

ASL is open source: https://opensource.apple.com/source/syslog/syslog-349.1.1/li...

The objective C runtime is open source: https://github.com/opensource-apple/objc4/blob/master/APPLE_...

icu, pthread, zlib, and libxml did not even originate at Apple.

Yes, but the copy shipped is signed by Apple. i.e. they did not compile their own copy.

MobileDevice.framework isn't open source.
