So, your company has been acquired. If climbing inside an escape pod and jettisoning your self into deep space is not an option, here is a list of things to expect:

• An order will be made to lower your firewalls and surrender your servers.
• You will be assimilated.  Resistance will only slow the process down.
• Assimilation is a means of adding or replacing spent drones.
• The Borg have no feeling, no emotion, no individual thought.
• Each Borg is part of a giant subspace communications network called Exchange Server.
• All communication is transmitted to the entire Collective via a process entitled Carbon Copy.
• Your present function and title is irrelevant.
• Strength is irrelevant.
• Negotiation is irrelevant.
• Freedom is irrelevant.
• Self-determination is irrelevant.
• Your life as it had been is over.
• From this time forward, you will service them.
• Your culture will adapt to service them.
• They will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to their own.
• Resistance is, and always has been, futile.
• You will become one with the Borg.
