Being that nobody actually reads the terms of service/use for products, could a company put something fucky and it be legal?

For example, say the next iOS TOS agreement says that any users who accept are subject to have their bank accounts drained and we all go on using our iPhones as usual and they took the money. Would that be legal?

No.

At least in the European union, Tos are not allowed to contain surprising or “hidden” clauses. So everything which a normal consumer would not expect in such terms would normally not be valid. If you wanna put such special clauses you would have need to highlight it, so that the customer really acknowledge what happens.
