Myanmar's military junta seeks ban on VPNs and digital currency

She wasn't elected head of state. She was barred from running for the top job on account of her spouse and offspring being foreigners (not sure whether she herself has any other nationality/citizenship). She was ruling by proxy.

For years the west placed her on a pedestal and lauded her as a goddess of democracy. But when she came to power and didn't follow the script (ie cut ties with China and suck up to the west) the west got pissed off and started "taking back" the awards they heaped upon her in yesteryears.

Her "killing citiizens" (I think you mean civilians) had nothing to do with her "fall from grace" (in the eyes of the west). Saudi Arabia and the UAE are killing civilians by the dozens daily in Yemen and the west are falling over themselves to supply them with weapons. Bliar killed hundreds of thousands in Iraq and Afghanistan and gets knighted for it. Obama started wars in Libya, Syria and Ukraine they're not asking him to return his ill-gotten and undeserved Nobel "Peace" Prize.
