WebApp Sec: Convenience or just bad design?

Convenience or just bad design?

So Altiris.com website allows their customers to upload files to their
servers. The filenames are based on the email address of the
customer.

The interesting part is that they make this upload directory web
accessible by FTP. So now not only you can access all the uploaded
files, you can also get the email addresses of the Altiris customers.
Some of the file are very interesting. They include actual unreleased
applications.

Doesn't this go against their privacy policy?

When will companies realize the importance of good secure design????
