God Asura Owner

Hey, I'm Akshay Kumar, but most people online know me as God_Asura. I’m the creator of AndroidPeople.com, a blog where I share everything I know and love about Android, tech, cybersecurity, SEO, gadgets, blogging, and all the wild stuff happening in the digital world. Everything you read here is the result of countless hours of research, hands-on experiments, failures, fixes, late nights, and pure love for tech. I don’t just write blogs — I live this stuff. From cracking Android tricks to diving deep into ethical hacking and creating guides that actually help, my goal is simple: deliver value, in a real and raw way. I also run the GodLevel Anime YouTube channel, where I share awesome anime and Chinese donghua content — because tech and anime are both my passions. Stick around. Learn something. Question everything. And if it helps you — that’s the best reward I can ask for. > — God_Asura ✌️
