There are other examples. Off the top of my head, firearms law has a few instances of this. The ATF publishes a list of FFL holders[0]. This includes gun dealers, pawnbrokers, and even holders of "curio and relic" licenses, which are collectors who do not do it as a business.
Many states also publish lists of concealed carry permit holders. A few years ago, the Commercial Appeal published the entire list of permit holders for Tennessee on their website, searchable by ZIP code. It seems to be a dead link now, but there are still articles about it out there[1]. There was a lot of concern in the community that this would lead to targeted break-ins by people seeking to illegally obtain firearms, but I don't recall seeing anything solid about it happening.
