The WordPress site svartelista.wordpress.com is shut down (made private) even if it is extremely important in Norway

Hello WordPress community,
I live in the city of Trondheim in Norway and we had a WordPress page called ‘Svartelista’ (black list) where people could write about their experiences with renting and landlords in Trondheim. We have a big problem with landlords renting out illegaly, swindling students, not giving back the deposit and so on. Many young students got help from this website when looking for a place to rent. This website helped many avoid the landlords who do not respect the law and swindle students without a shred of bad conscience. It is an essential help for young people in the city and in my opinion, it is crucial that the page is made public again. I am not sure if a landlord complained to WordPress about the site and WordPress chose to listen to the landlord, but I think the help students and young and inexperienced people got from the page is more important than landlords who want to continue their shady business without being exposed for their illegalities.
Can WordPress please make this site public again so that young people still can get help when deciding on a place to live so they do not encounter one of the landlords mentioned on this site?
I don’t have a site linked to this WordPress.com account

Wordpress.com can’t and won’t change the privacy status of a website. Only the owner is able to do so. You must contact the owner of that site and ask him to set his site to public.

Oh, okay, I thought WordPress had done it. But thanks for informing me :) Then hopefully the site will be up and running in short time.
