World: Some weird guy on a mission to Burma just ruined an activist’s life

  • Burmese pro-Democracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi was living out the waning days of her house arrest and very close to a possible release. source
  • A weird, creepy guy from the U.S., John Yettaw, swims to her house and tries to meet with her. (Nobody’s really sure why outside of insanity.) source
  • Burma finds that, because this guy visited her house, she broke the terms of her house arrest and now faces likely jail time. WTF, Burma? source
