These products exploit/capitalize on computer illiteracy. That's not something I would personally be proud of, but computer illiteracy is the real problem here. Products like this can ultimately accelerate the correction of computer illiteracy.
That correction can come in the form of greater mainstream cultural impetus for computer literacy training, for operating system developerrs to prevent these types of actions (app stores of all platforms are decent at this), or by creating/expanding a market for products that intercept and neutralize this type of exploitation.
The more efficient the means of exploiting computer illiteracy, the sooner the exploit is, in some way, neutralized.
