for google, preventing apps with malware is easy.
all they have to do is put a clause in there that if malware is founf within a given app, legal action will be taken against the owner/company. and their names will be added to a "devz blacklist". if any further app is even associated with them, that app will be automatically barred from the play store.
further on, google should make this blacklist public so that other development companies wont accidentally hire someone associated with this behavior. it will also be part of the company to make sure none of the apps they release has such malware.
