Update 2: A Ubisoft Insider has shared his views about the Dianna Lora and PewDiePie situation. According to him, she is out of the few bad eggs at the company.
Update: Ubisoft has reportedly fired Dianna from her position at the company.
Original Story: Yesterday, we reported that one of the developers working at Ubisoft Massive, Dianna, gave a veiled death threat to YouTuber PewDiePie. She posted on Twitter and expressed her misinformed opinion about PewDiePie’s shout out to an anti-semitic channel. PewDiePie explained the situation in one of his videos but his explanation wasn’t enough for this one Ubisoft employee.
While Ubisoft is silent about the matter and didn’t release any statement regarding her public accusations and threats to PewDiePie, the community isn’t taking too kindly to her misguided anger. The community wants Ubisoft to take action and made sure such a hateful person is at least kept in check during her time at the company.
Really @Ubisoft ? THIS is what your Division developer does in her free time? Attacking Pewdiepie? Hey Dianna, where were you when Pewdiepie organized a charity for children’s rights in India? What the fuck did you do to make this world a better place instead of running ur jaw?

A few days ago, a @Ubisoft production professional, Dianna Lora, publicly ordered the murder of YouTuber, PewDiePie.
Not even joking.

I’ve just been told that @Ubisoft | @UbiMassive has fired @GrlpantsGR for her twitter attack against @pewdiepie.
I FULLY disagree with Dianna but I believe firing her was too much. What she said was ironic (& stupid) coming from her. But she has the right to voice her opinions.
