TOKYO (Reuters) -Apple CEO Tim Cook agreed at the request of Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida to put Japan's "My Number" identification card functions onto iPhones, Japan's top government spokesperson said on Thursday.
The Japanese government plans to integrate people's tax and social security data into a single identification card to boost administrative efficiency.
