我尝试向List<String>实例添加对象，但它抛出UnsupportedOperationException。 有人知道为什么吗?

我的Java代码:

String[] membersArray = request.getParameterValues('members');
List<String> membersList = Arrays.asList(membersArray);

for (String member : membersList) {
    Person person = Dao.findByName(member);
    List<String> seeAlso;
    seeAlso = person.getSeeAlso();
    if (!seeAlso.contains(groupDn)){
        seeAlso.add(groupDn);
        person.setSeeAlso(seeAlso);
    }
}

错误信息:

java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException
    java.util.AbstractList.add(Unknown Source)
