"telemetry" has been used for quite a while for information sent home. Usually a bit less log-like and is used for more metrics and status sorts of things.
Logs are telemetry when they're sent to third party consumers who don't ordinarily have access to your systems.
Telemetry is literally just remote metrics.
Logs comes from ships throwing a piece of wood attached to a knotted rope over the stern and writing down the results in a log book to record speed at intervals as a part of normal navigation. Telemetry makes more sense :)
