The Tor onion services offer alternatives to the https PKI:

https://onion.debian.org/

security.d.o mirrors were getting overwhelmed after Linux kernel
updates, which is why that switched to the Fastly CDN, so probably
not. Also, the entire point of the deb.d.o domain is that it be backed
by a CDN.

httpredir.d.o was an alternative CDN-like thing that was based on HTTP
redirects to the mirror network. It had lots of problems, but now that
we have a mirror checker and zzz-dists, perhaps it could work better.
The mirror:// method in apt has probably improved since then too.
Maybe http redirects to local mirrors could be feasible again, but it
would take a lot of work.

And there are other CDNs that could potentially be used.
