I stumbled on this news and started wondering if it's legal. It seems to me it shouldn't, since it's pretty much doxing. But I don't know at all.

Doctors, nurses, and pharmacists definitely document any tantrums or difficulties they have in your medical records. They don't deny you care, but they are going to treat some patients differently based on their previous interactions.

That information is not public though. No one is stopping a landlord from asking for references and reaching out to those past landlords; which is a totally fair thing to do.

There is tons of information that is public that people don't think of.
