Social media access is claimed as the main reason why netizens connect to the internet, indicated by 19,1% of 171.17 million internet users in Indonesia (Association of Indonesia Internet Service Provider (APJII) 2019). Social media’s ‘reach’ is considered as the indicator of the expansion and distribution of information potentials, marked by the production, dissemination and exertion of information by social media users or the netizens. Thus, highlights potential of independent neighborhood surveillance conducted progressively and continuously by social media users (netizens) to respond COVID-19 emergency matter through microblog-based social media platform known as ‘Twitter’.
