Of course, someone can just "cd /home" and see everything. You must have set it up very oddly for this behavior to be in effect. Read the man page for ftpd (the system one) since it actually describes the setup of an anonymous ftp area in some detail, showing how you keep anon ftp users wholly confined to a given subtree (and completely unable to "cd /home and see everything"), and you can compare that procedure with whatever you did to set up your "anon ftp" user.
