rsync.net has nothing to do with the actual rsync project or its authors.
It may interest you to know that in 2006, when we were about to spin off rsync.net from JohnCompanies[1][2] we emailed all of the rsync authors and asked them if they had any objections at all to our naming the new company, and registering the domain name 'rsync.net' ... and they gave us their blessing.
As for the stock photos ... the old site had no photos at all. Baby steps ...
[1] The first VPS provider (circa 2001)
[2] Yes, really.

There's no 'about us' on the site
I tweaked them about this a few weeks ago, and got a detailed answer here on HN. But I guess they haven't gotten around to updating their site yet.

I remember looking into this site before and it appears they have rebranded. I know they used to be related to JohnCompanies [http://johncompanies.com] but I see no references to them anymore on rsync.net
It's possible they are no longer related.
edit: I just looked at http://johncompanies.com/about.html and they do still mention rsync.net on that page.
