Thanks for the links. I wasn’t aware of those, it sounds like PlayStore level of crapware in those cases, although you have to be REALLY dumb to be fooled by such obvious ones. But if you’re a very technically challenged person I am sure it is possible.
But the case with the LastPass clone is definitely much more malicious.

Isn’t that Apple’s demographic? People get an iPhone or Mac because it just works and they don’t have to worry about complexity and choice. Freedom can be paralyzing to people.
That’s oversimplifying it quite a lot. Many tech-educated users, developers, IT experts etc use MacOS/iOS. And many users of Android or other OSes have no idea what they are doing. All the large operating systems today are too wide to have a one demographic, they cover it all.
