Description
This is a regression from 9.2.
In 9.2, the status of private posts was in color, making it pop:

Now it's black, like the rest of the text above it (not pictured):

The icon is also different. The old "page" didn't make sense, but the new "phone" makes even less sense. The common representation for such items is an eye with a slash through it.
Tested on WPiOS 9.7

Research direction
Start by reproducing the private-post status display in WPiOS and compare it with the provided 9.2 and 9.7 screenshots. Trace the status UI from the affected post screen; done means the private status is visually prominent and uses an eye-with-slash icon.
