1. In the above clip there is a definite hand on the shoulder, and it looks like the defender has also grabbed a handful of shirt, but it's difficult to say for sure. We also don't know whether the assistant is speaking with the ref to say whether it is or isn't a penalty. Personally I'm happy with the call.
2. Why are people getting hung up on "unauthorised" hand signals. Yes, on the local park a loud firm "No!" Will suffice, in a stadium with a large crowd people other than players who are close by aren't going to hear this, so a clear hand signal shows you've seen it and aren't giving anything.
