By definition:

Terrorism is aimed at the people watching, not at the actual victims. Terrorism is theater (Brian M. Jenkins, 1974)

Terrorism is what looks, smells and kills like terrorism is terrorism. (US Govt)

The Target Audience of Terrorism itself are not only someone that directly affected physically but also the Mass Media including the-most-powerful-one : Social Media.

True that Terrorism is an Ideal Media Product. As we know, Conventional Media tends to widely broadcasted the real situation of the terror - but unfortunately, Social Media does spread the terror (yet the rumors) in VIRAL which is faster than Newspaper, TV, Radio even Online News.
Terrorist using Mass Media and Social Media to instill the terror by affecting Many More People than the real victims.

Beware of #HASHTAG, Spreading Picture (esp.disturbing), Spreading "COPAS GRUP SEBELAH" Chat, Spreading ineligible news. We never know which are the true or the hoax one, right? We spread for sake of sharing information? I would say, re-thinking to hit the "Share" or "Send" or "Post" Button. 

I may say by spreading the negativity+the bad words+victims' picture+ineligible news from Grup Sebelah on our social media means WE HELP THE TERRORIST ACCOMPLISHED THEIR GOALS. 1000+ victims and 1.000.000 + psychologically damaged

In Conclusion, Think Twice in spreading the terrorism news. Moreover, instead of saying (hashtag) Pray for Jakarta ; (hashtag) Jakarta Digoncang Bom ; (hashtag) Jakarta Berduka, prefer saying positive word like Jaga Jakarta Indonesia Brave ; We are Strong Nation (with no hashtag).


God Bless Us!
