Squelching disagreement in the name of civility is not a good way to run a business, and they probably know that. Removing a widely-read criticism of Match.com before more people see it, however, does make commercial sense. It is not the kind of explosive secret that must be contained completely to be contained at all; taking it down from OkCupid's site means it will only be available on lower-profile, lower-traffic sites, and fewer people will read it in the future.
