Mega, Kim Dotcom’s brand new company, is heading for an IPO this year, Dotcom announced.

According to a tweet posted on his account, Mega is going to become a “stock market listed company” in 2014. “We’re a leader in encrypted cloud technology. We’re the privacy company & we hate the NSA,” Dotcom wrote.

While there was no exact timeline provided for Dotcom’s IPO plans, he did share other information about things he had lined up for the following few months.

Basically, his big plan for this year is to take revenge on the US government for what he lost in 2012.

“If the Government destroys your billion dollar business, just build a new billion dollar business, and then… make them pay,” Dotcom sums up his plans for the year.

The Internet mogul said on Twitter that, in 2012, the US government destroyed Megaupload and seized everything he owned, without due process or a hearing. Despite all the legal hurdles he’s faced over the past few years, Dotcom says that things are looking up for him.

“Megastuff creditors’ money was also seized by the US govt. I’m delighted to announce that #Mega is doing great and you’ll all be paid this May,” Dotcom boasts on his Twitter account, sharing the good news.

To make things even nicer, he mentioned that back in 2012, as Megaupload went down, 220 people lost their jobs. In the next few months, Dotcom says that there will be new openings for those who want their jobs back.

“Over a dozen companies, including a fashion label, were destroyed in 2012. I'm delighted to announce that they're all coming back in 2014,” Dotcom wrote, adding more to the list of great news.

This doesn’t just sound nice for Dotcom, but it’s also excellent for all his former employees and anyone involved with Megaupload a couple of years back.
