That’s like saying Samsung shouldn’t allow you to install any apps. If Verizon bought the phone they can put whatever they want on it before they sell it to you. And then when you buy it, you delete or put whatever you want on it.
This happens on unlocked phones too. My Galaxy S21 has apps installed on it whenever I have a different provider (Trafcone, AT&T, etc.). It’s not just when it’s a phone resold from the provider.
Samsung allowing this to happen is bad though
