It seems that a group of self-described "pilgrims" working for a quantum encryption company have devised a method of sending information from [[Year Zero]] back through time to the present, in the hope that we will change their reality. This suggests that the Nine Inch Nails album [[Year Zero]] and the related websites are artifacts from 15 years in the future.
The /pilgrims website mentions Mallett Rings. Further research indicates this may be a reference to Ronald L. Mallett, Ph.D., Professor of Physics at University of Connecticut. Some of his research includes time travel and rings of light. [http://www.physics.uconn.edu/~mallett/main/research_activities.htm http://www.physics.uconn.edu/~mallett/main/research_activities.htm]
Furthermore, the name Chiarello is mentioned in the logs. This is a direct reference to Fabio Chiarello, who since 1992 has been involved in major research in the field of Quantum computing. Currently, Fabio Chiarello right now is the major researcher in the field of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQUID SQUIDs] or Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices.
