My files are getting set from public to private system wide. I believe I traced it to _private_upload_create_url() which calls variable_set('file_downloads', FILE_DOWNLOADS_PRIVATE); when I login.

I've experienced this same bug as well.

Looking at the code, I think variable_set('file_downloads', FILE_DOWNLOADS_PRIVATE); should really be variable_set('file_downloads', $download_method); , as it is a few lines below.

I see now that this issue is a duplicate of #498840: Private Upload can change file settings back to 'private'. I'm going to mark this one as a duplicate.
