No - those examples are quite clear that the product does not exist, and are seeking funding to build something.

Ah got it!

So if a landing page states the same, a product is being developed and if people have interest to follow it, drop their email, that's ok right?

Yes, exactly. There is nothing wrong with honest communication, stating that you are thinking about building a product. The problem is when people write pages acting like the product already exists, collecting emails under false pretenses.
