Whoa, he has some ability to realize what he has taken part in creating.

“The days of Usenet, IRC, the web… even email (with PGP)... were amazing,” Dorsey said on Saturday in a tweet spotted by Mashable. “Centralizing discovery and identity into corporations really damaged the internet. I realize I’m partially to blame, and regret it.”

I don't believe him that he's going to push for a better future

Better is a question of definition 😅 I think he has a self image of being pretty libertarian, which is not always backed up by what he actually does as a business man, but he is rich enough to retire and work on a libertarian pet project in the future.

Is that going to be good? Who knows. But probably "better" than Twitter.
