Well... Who ran the comms stuff?
It's an island in the middle of the ocean, placed between two continents, with limited, military-controlled access by the US and UK.
I don't think I'd need a spoiler tag to say government intelligence agencies.
Well, ærospace agencies actually, since there are few signals to intercept in central nowhere. Contacting satellites and guiding æroplanes over open ocean is a great use for an island in the middle of an ocean.
GCHQ Have a station there, I dont think its any big secret
