  "account": "Online sports betting apps such as FanDuel and DraftKings can quickly transform casual winners into users who feel the odds are against them. ProPublica is seeking to uncover how these apps entice users to continue playing and when they notify them to stop. To achieve this, they are requesting at least 250 individuals to upload their gambling history from such apps. They are not yet at this target, so anyone who has used these platforms is encouraged to contribute. Additionally, those who have experience within the industry are invited to share their knowledge by answering a few questions. Your personal transaction histories and insights into the apps can provide crucial information on how companies offer incentives, invite users to VIP programs, and send responsible gaming warnings. Without this data, it would be impossible to fully understand the operations of these companies. For more information on this project and how to share your data, visit ProPublica's website.",
