During the big bang the universe expanded a zillion times faster than the speed of light. Oh, I did not know that.

And in the quantum world particles can communicate instantanously across the universe When the wave packet overlays an energy barrier that particle may have a sufficiency high probability of being on either side of the energy barrier so that it may be said to tunnel through the energy barrier. This usually occurs over distances on the order of angstroms and not the universe. E.g., electrons tunnelling out of the surface of a metal subject to a strong electric field. Do you have an example of it occurring great distances?
