The curvature of the earth is getting in the way! haha
And the aliens seem to be able to communicate with each other, just fine: yes, signals can and will penetrate their hull as their communication network was the primary delivery medium for David's virus. David just uploaded it to the mother-ship because he's not smart enough to uplink through the communication network.
What David did was like walking into a highly secured Server room and attaching a USB stick directly to a server rather than using a remote terminal to do the same. 🙂 He's just a weak hacker.
Something Tony Stark is not. Tony has shown multiple times that he's probably second to none when it comes to his hacking, cracking, and infiltration skills.
You think they can hack into the Aliens Ship Remotely while Stark is getting blasted to kingdom come by 1000 ships?
