Digital photos should be treated like any other precious data. Companies go through extensive, sophisticated and sometimes highly complex methods of protecting their data. We as individuals can learn a lot from them in terms of disaster recovery and business continuance plans. While they generally have a lot more financial resources to throw at the problem, some of their solutions can be scaled down and made feasible for individuals to implement.
For internal drives, I've had pretty good luck with Seagate, IBM and Hitachi. I have had a bunch of 18GB and 9GB SCSI Hitachi drives that had been spinning pretty much for 10 years straight in one of my old servers. For Seagate drives, I recommend the AS type drives for workstations, ES for servers and NS for storage arrays.
As for external storage, it depends on the requirements. Do you need it to be highly portable, luggable or fixed? I have all three.
[0] Portable - This drive is meant to go where I go and provides a means of extended normally acquiesced storage for in-the-field and on-the-road backups to data normally on my laptop. I'm still using an old Apricorn Aegis Bio 160GB for this solution. It has built-in security that's biometrically protected for access as well as data encryption. The biometrics is all on the drive unit itself so it's not tied to any specific laptop or operating system. It appears as a USB mass storage device to the host. It is powered through the USB connection. I need the security because I also have sensitive data for work. I'll probably snag myself a larger drive at some point but honestly, I don't need much carry-around storage since I regularly sync back to the "mothership" anyways.
[1] Luggable - This type of drive is externally powered and is usually a bit larger. It may have several ways to connect to the host including Firewire, USB and SATA. I have a couple of Western Digital MyBook drives for this. I don't carry them around. I actually use them as backup media for my network storage array. Basically they've replaced my tape-backup solution. I simply hook up the drive, start my backups and then unhook the drive and store them away. I have several of them so I can rotate them to adhere to my backup and retention strategy.
[2] Network Attached Storage (NAS) - This is a fixed location, typically multidrive array that is accessed and accessible over the network. I run a large number of computers at home and so I needed some kind of fileserver. For this, I use a QNAP TS-869 Pro. It has eight drive bays and is populated with 3TB drives configured into RAID-5 volumes. I also have a second NAS which acts as my backup NAS that mirrors my primary NAS. In the event of a total primary NAS failure, I can shift mounts to my back NAS. The backup NAS is a Netgear ReadyNAS NV+ (formerly Infrant before Netgear bought them). It holds 4 drives and is currently configured with 2TB drives. It supports several forms of RAID from simple striping to mirroring to RAID-5 with hot-standby. It also supports its own proprietary X-RAID. Both NAS appliances allow for organic growth of the array without incurring substantial rebuilding and downtime of the volumes. You simply add drives as you need and the thing grows in size... even while hot. Files are accessible via many forms of transport protocol including NFS (my main priority), CIFS, AFS, Windows sharing, HTTP/HTTPS and FTP. They provide fault-tolerant highly redundant solutions. They also include a built-in backup system which is what I use with the WD MyBooks to achieve nightly incremental and weekly full backups. They don't come with a card reader but they do act as a USB-host so a USB card reader can be attached to it. Any USB mass storage devices (including my DSLR) can be attached to them and exported over the network. They can also act as USB print servers if need be but my printers are already network capable. They support a bunch of software plugins that can be installed to make them do other stuff too such as act as a security camera DVR..
It's probably a good idea to develop an archiving method too. Mine involves a mixture of online, nearline and offline storage with backups.
Nearline field storage includes my laptop's drive and a portable external drive. The laptop has a 320GB drive and the portable external drive is 160GB in capacity. Online and nearline home storage is a 4x1TB network attached storage array running proprietary X-RAID (like RAID-5) with a hot-spare drive. Offline backups are done with external HDs that are rotated into place for nightly incremental and weekly full backups. Current retention schema is 4 weeks of backups with a one week offsite rotation (performed monthly).
Note that if you go the NAS route, many of them have integrated multiple concurrent backup solutions. For instance, my ReadyNAS supports both local and remote nearline storage mechanisms and has a built-in multi-job backup manager. It can be set to sync to another NAS, to attached JBODs (Just a Bunch Of Disks) and/or streamed backup to an offsite backup provider such as their own cloud-based ReadyNAS Vault service which itself can support multiple devices. So when investigating NAS solutions, also pay attention to what it offers as far as integrated backup.
But as with anything, you must first develop your backup and data recovery strategy and policy. Once you've done that then you can develop a plan for implementing it. Once you've done that then you can settle upon what components you will need to purchase and set up.
One key thing to consider is your retention needs. Do you require that all data must be kept and archived or is it okay to overwrite, rotate or delete from archive? Do you need to only keep the most up-to-date copy of your data or do you need version control starting from data birth? How long can you survive with a loss of data? What is your critical recovery time threshold? How many users will be effected? How much data are you willing to lose? If you lose your last week's worth of work for an hour, is it a tragedy or can you live with the time it takes to drive to the safety deposit box at your bank to get the monthly backup drive? Will streaming back 500GB of data from an offsite network backup provider at 10Mbps simply be too long? Do you need to rebuild from bare metal or do you only need critical data backed up?
I only keep NEFs. I create JPEGs and TIFFs only for distribution and have a special Exports directory where I keep them. I then I get rid of them after a short period of time... usually within a month. I use CNX so I can manage versioning within the NEFs since only CNX can write-back NEFs. If I create a JPEG or TIFF I like, I will create a version of the CNX edit steps with the name of that JPEG/TIFF. This way I don't need to keep the JPEG/TIFF. I can always easily recreate it from the NEF version. Because NEFs support multiple versions within the same file, there is no excess space usage by having different versions of the edit steps.
I don't suggest just blindly adopting one specific setup. You have to analyse your needs, your resources, your budget, your comfort with complexity and figure out what works best for you and more importantly, you need to understand the details. Knowing where and how your data lives is very important when it comes to ensuring survivability and disaster recovery.

In the United States, by comparison, there are fewer online/data privacy laws that in European Union member nations, Australia or Canada.

Unbeknownst to most computer users, there are literally hundreds, thousands or more scripts, codes, hidden pixels, cookies and more which are all designed with one purpose in mind... TO TRACK YOU ONLINE.
Some malicious hackers take advantage of the abundance of such computer code to attempt to trick your computer into "giving away" valuable information, such as your identity, passwords to sensitive accounts (not just email, but online banking, prescription services, etc.), and more.
While in years past the Congress was motivated to address various aspects of such legitimate concern, and enacted the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), there is little reason to now imagine that this present Congress will do anything about anything... except sit on their big, fat cat asses and collect their taxpayer paid salaries, and enjoy some mighty fine health insurance and retirement benefits.
There really is no "watchdog" to protect consumers' interests, and the FCC is steam-rolling towards a system wherein only the BIG DOG companies can pay to play in the high-speed lane, and thereby, slow everyone else down. If you like the Internet AS IT IS NOW (not your provider, but the idea that EVERY SITE gets treated equally, i.e., PLAYS BY THE SAME RULES) then it is incumbent upon you to ACT NOW to share your comment with the FCC.
You may do that here, and select Proceeding Number entitled:
"14-28 Protecting and Promoting the Open Internet":
Meanwhile... when Congress gets in the mood to cooperate for the benefit of the people that elected them, and NOT the MAJOR CORPORATIONS, we can expect more of the same type of nonsensical foot-dragging which has hampered American economic recovery.
There ARE a few things you can do, however, to assist keeping your private information private, and to lower, and practically eliminate much of the tracking efforts and scripts that run amok in your computer.
Here's a partial list of FREEWARE, browser add-ons, and other tools which can significantly reduce the time it takes for various pages to load, as well as provide some level of control for you over the things that ask to flow through your computer.

Geheimschreiber
Although the ENIGMA remains the best know German cryptographic machine of World War II, in the early 1940's the German military introduced several new cryptographic teletypewriters known under the name Geheimschreiber - sometimes translated as "private secretary", sometimes as "secret writer".
These machines offered on-line encryption and decryption, that is plain test could be typed directly into the machine, automatically converted to encrypted text, and sent directly to the transmitter. In addtion to security, these "secret writers" provided the Germans with the ability to encrypt large volumes of test at high speed.
Learning that the Germans had named an early version of these machines SWORDFISH, the British and Americans bestowed nicknames associated with fish on the machines and the communications links in which they were used. The two most famous are TUNNY and STURGEON.
Just as they developed the Bombe to assist decryption of ENIGMA , the British developed data processing to attack the fish family of machine ciphers. (I must add: This was a whale of a job!) This led to the construction of the COLOSSUS which British historian F. H. Hinsley is "justly claimed as a pioneer programmable electronic digital computer."
The 40 (SZ40) when first encountered in 1940 was nicknamed TUNNY by the British - after a fish better known to Americans as TUNA.
The Schlüsselzusatz SZ40, manufactured by the German firm Lorenz, was used by the German Army for high-level communications, generally between Army groups. It provided on-line encryption and decryption and was capable of handling large volumes f traffic at high speed. The TUNNY depended on wheels for encryption and decryption but unlike ENIGMA it did nut substitute letters but insted encrypted elements of the electrically generated Baudot code used in normal telegraphic transmissions.

Example of Locky ransomware.
Locky is ransomware malware released in 2016. It is delivered by email and after infection will encrypt all files that match particular extensions.
After encryption, a message (displayed on the user's desktop) instructs them to download the Tor browser and visit a specific criminal-operated Web site for further information.
The current version, released in December 2016, utilizes the .osiris extension for encrypted files.
Many different distribution methods for Locky have been used since the ransomware was released. These distribution methods include Word and Excel attachments with malicious macros,DOCM attachments and zipped JS Attachments.

Kirken på Kapitelberget er en kirke fra middelalderen ved Bratsberg gård ved Skien i Telemark. Kirken er Skien kommunes tusenårssted.[1]
Kapitelberget ble opp ført som privat kapell til Bratsberg gård i begynnelsen av 1100-tallet. Kirken er en kryptkirke, som det bare finnes fire av i Norge (de andre er i Stavanger domkirke, Munkeliv klosterkirke og kirkeruinen i Søndre gate 4 i Trondheim).[2]
Kirken ble antakelig viet til Mikael, en engel omtalt i Bibelen da man i middelalderen ofte viet en kirke til en engel (eller helgen) for å knytte kontakt mellom kirken og engelen. Kirker på fjell ble ofte viet til Mikael, likeså kirker med krypt slik som Kapitelberget. Militære ledere brukte Mikael som tegn på at retten var på deres side. Mikael var også riddernes og soldatenes beskytter.

Man vet ikke når kirken gikk ut av bruk, men i 1576 omtaler Peder Claussøn Friis den som en ruin, den kan ha blitt ødelagt da Bratsberg gård brant i 1156.[3] Ruinen ble gjenoppdaget i 1783, men den ble først utgravd i 1901. Så ble den stående og forfalle fram til 1928, da Gerhard Fischer tok til med restaurering og konservering. Arbeidet ble fullført i 1933. Murene har så blitt utbedret flere ganger, bl.a i 1952, 1968, 1982–1984, 1999 og 2003–2006.
Church Kapitelberget is a church from the Middle Ages by Bratsberg farm at Skien in Telemark. The church is Skien municipality millennium. [1]
Kapitelberget was brought up as a private chapel for Bratsberg farm in the early 1100's. The church is a crypt church, there are only four of Norway (the others are in Stavanger Cathedral, Munkeliv church and church ruins in the Southern gate 4 in Trondheim). [2]
The church was probably dedicated to Michael, an angel mentioned in the Bible as in the Middle Ages often dedicated a church to an angel (or weekend) to liaise between the church and the angel. Churches on the rock was often devoted to Michael, as well as churches with encryption so that Kapitelberget. Military leaders used Michael as a sign that right was on their side. Michael was also the Knights' and soldiers protecting.

It is not known when the church went out of use, but in 1576 reviews Peder Claussøn Friis it as a ruin, it may have been destroyed when Bratsberg farm burned down in 1156. [3] The ruins were rediscovered in 1783, but it was first excavated in 1901 . Then the standing and decay until 1928, when Gerhard Fischer took to the restoration and preservation. The work was completed in 1933. The walls have now been repaired several times, bl.ai 1952, 1968, 1982-1984, 1999 and 2003-2006.

Telecomix Crypto Munitions Bureau works for the benefit of cipherspace. Cipherspace is the state of crypto anarchy. This means that your identity is anonymous as long as you stay protected. There are no identities or authorities in cipherspace, and it is not possible to enforce laws where there is no identity, or where there are no authorities.
Today there are several threats to the inhabitants of the internet. The politicians of oppressive regimes in the east and in the west, in north and south, are imposing surveillance. Surveillance of the entire networks. What people say to each other, what information is transmitted between bots and humans alike.
This aggression must be met with the strongest encryption algorithms available to modern computers. With onion and garlic routing it is possible to erect the fractal cipherspace. With distributed hash tables it is possible to create networks that has no central node. There is no one that controls the fractal cipherspace. Internet as we know it, turns into darknet.
Telecomix Crypto Munitions Bureau recommends that you use the following software: i2p, for anonymous and secure communications, Gnu Privacy Guard, for direct and verified communication. The onion router, TOR, to access the internets.
Telecomix Munitions is a defense bureau.
You can change the future of the internets by joining us in defending the networks and creating cipherspace.
You can help defending yourself and your friends, yes, all inhabitants of the networks.
By learning a few skills you can take control over technology.
Telecomix munitions are currently developing and promoting advanced security devices, which can endure even the harshest forms of government or corporation surveillance.
Your personal computer is an encryption device. Modern hardware can transform plain text to ciphertext with ease. So rapidly you barely notice the difference between unencrypted and encrypted data.
The laws of mathematics are infinitely stronger than the laws of nations and corporations, as the human laws are really only ink on paper. The laws of mathematics, on the other hand, are the laws that define our very universe. With the use of modern crypto algorithms we can use this fact to defend free speech and the integrity of both bots and humans. Information is nothing but numbers, numbers governed not by human laws, but by the laws of mathematics.
Networks that utilize the power of cryptography already exist. It will not be possible to stop the spread of the fractal cipherspace.
To find out more, come to telecomix.org or visit us in cipherspace on telecomix.i2p.

Hackerspace Hack42 is proudly hosting a new artist-in-residence. Dr. Vera K. Wilde (PhD PoliSci) is a (former) Harvard Kennedy School researcher. She is working on re-branding the Dark-Web to the EDTR-web, a place for Expressing, Dissenting, Teaching and Resisting. The EDTR-web is using technologies like TOR and encrypted communications tools to create a place of freedom where centralised power cannot reach.
Vera will be using arts (oil painting and songwriting) as well as writing and political science methods to define and develop the EDTR-web as a social space and technological phenomenon.
I was asked to shoot a couple of photos of Vera. We connected really well and it turned into a two hour photo-shoot in which we had great fun driving around the hackerspace and Buitenplaats Koningsweg compound looking for shooting locations during golden hour.

The Codebreakers by David Kahn
Because The Codebreakers dealt with several potentially sensitive subjects, like the National Security Agency, the US Intelligence and defense communities asked to review the manuscript prior to publication. After its review, the Department of Defense stated they "deplored the book" and "it would not be in the national interest to publish it." Kahn deleted certain portions related to NSA and the book was published without further incidence.
Source of material : National Cryptologic Museum
The Codebreakers (from Wikipedia article on David Kahn)
The Codebreakers comprehensively chronicles the history of cryptography from ancient Egypt to the time of its writing. It is widely regarded as the best account of the history of cryptography up to its publication. William Crowell, the former deputy director of the National Security Agency, was quoted in Newsday as saying "Before he (Kahn) came along, the best you could do was buy an explanatory book that usually was too technical and terribly dull." Kahn, then a journalist, was contracted to write a book on cryptology in 1961. He began writing it part-time, at one point quitting his regular job to work on it full time. The book was to include information on the National Security Agency (NSA), and according to the author James Bamford writing in 1982, the agency attempted to stop its publication, and considered various options, including publishing a negative review of Kahn's work in the press to discredit him. A committee of the United States Intelligence Board concluded that the book was "a possibly valuable support to foreign COMSEC authorities" and recommended "further low-key actions as possible, but short of legal action, to discourage Mr. Kahn or his prospective publishers". Kahn's publisher, the Macmillan company, handed over the manuscript to the Federal government for review without Kahn's permission on 4 March 1966. Kahn and Macmillan eventually agreed to remove some material from the manuscript, particularly concerning the relationship between the NSA and its British counterpart, the GCHQ.
The Codebreakers did not cover most of the history concerning the breaking of the German Enigma machine (which became public knowledge only in the 1970s). Nor did it cover the advent of strong cryptography in the public domain, beginning with the invention of public key cryptography and the specification of the Data Encryption Standard in the mid-1970s. This book was republished in 1996, and this new edition includes an additional chapter briefly covering the events since the original publication.

Star Trek, First Contact (Paramount, 1996).
youtu.be/wxyZQR2d6yw Trailer
Star Trek - 'Beyond First Contact' The Borg - Making The Movie.
Starring Patrick Stewart, Jonathan Frakes, Brent Spiner, LeVar Burton, Michael Dorn, Gates McFadden, Marina Sirtis, Alfre Woodard, James Cromwell, Alice Krige, Neal McDonough, Robert Picardo, and Dwight Schultz. Directed by Jonathan Frakes.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard awakens from a nightmare about his Borg assimilation experience to an incoming message from Admiral Hayes. Hayes informs Picard that Deep Space Five reported that a colony has been destroyed. Completing the Admiral's sentence, Picard realizes who destroyed the colony — the Borg.
Picard calls a meeting and informs his senior officers that their ship has been instructed to patrol the Neutral Zone. Their orders are to protect the area from any possible Romulan uprising during a Borg attack. Despite protests from his officers, Picard remains faithful to his orders and the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC 1701-E begins to patrol the area. Later, Picard regretfully tells Riker that it is his own fault they are stuck in the Neutral Zone. Starfleet believes Picard to be too emotionally involved with the Borg because of his previous assimilation to tactically complete a mission against them.
The men return to the bridge to learn that Starfleet has engaged in combat with the Borg. Intercepting messages between the starships, the crew learns that the Federation is losing. Picard, with his Borg experience, knows he can help the fleet. He informs his staff that he will make a decision directly in opposition to Starfleet commands. With no objections from his crew, Captain Picard gives the order and the starship Enterprise sets a course for Earth and the attacking Borg cube.
A massive battle ensues and it appears that the Federation will lose the fight. Despite serious structural damage to the Borg cube, their strength does not weaken. Even the U.S.S. Defiant, commanded by Worf, does not appear to be able to turn the tides of the battle. As the starship Defiant is about to ram the Borg ship on a suicide run, the U.S.S. Enterprise beams aboard its crew, including Worf. Picard, having an inside perspective of the Borg and their vessel, focuses the firepower of the fleet on coordinates he knows to be critical. Just as the main ship is destroyed, a spherical escape pod flies out. The sphere creates a temporal vortex, catching the starship Enterprise in its wake. Immune to the paradoxes created by the time travel, the starship's crew learns that Earth at the present time appears to be inhabited entirely by the Borg. The commanding officers realize that the Borg have gone into the past and assimilated Earth, so they follow them back in time to repair the damage the Borg have done.
On Earth, over three centuries earlier, a somber Lily Sloane accompanies a stumbling, drunk Zefram Cochrane out of a bar after a night of revelry. Then, Lily notices a fast moving light. She hardly has time to ask what the object is, when the Borg vessel attacks. Back aboard the Enterprise, Picard demands that Data tell him the exact date and location the Borg ship is attacking. The location: central Montana. The date: April 4, 2063 — the day before First Contact. Realizing that the Borg have come to prevent first contact between alien life forms and humans, the crew knows they must stop the Borg and facilitate this exchange. They destroy the Borg sphere, and Dr. Crusher, Captain Picard, Commander Data, Commander Riker, Counselor Troi and other U.S.S. Enterprise crew transport down to Earth to survey the damage.
At the Borg attack site in Montana, the crew finds destruction and chaos. They split into groups to search for Cochrane. Data and Picard hunt for Cochrane's warp ship, the Phoenix. There they encounter a very angry and confused Lily, who believes Data and Picard to be members of a coalition that broke the cease-fire after World War III. She shoots at them in a rage, but impervious to bullets, Data approaches Lily. Overcome by fear and radiation, she falls to the ground. Dr. Crusher diagnoses Lily with radiation sickness caused by the damaged Phoenix, and inoculates the entire crew. Against Picard's better judgment, Crusher takes Lily to sickbay. Geordi is called to help repair the warp vessel and Picard becomes intrigued by its historical significance. In this vessel began the future as the world would know it, and the past as Picard remembers it. He reaches out to touch the ship. Data, curious about the human need for tactile reinforcement, attempts to create the same feelings he observes in Picard, but is unsuccessful in duplicating this aspect of humanity.
Aboard the ship, two crewmembers are sent to examine unexplained maintenance problems, and both disappear. Picard is called to the ship and discovers that the survivors from the Borg sphere have transported onto the ship and are taking over Deck 16. While Picard arranges teams to fight them, the Borg manipulate the climate of the deck to suit their needs and begin to spread throughout the ship. When the Borg attack sickbay, Crusher, her staff, and Lily escape through a Jeffries tube, thanks to a distraction by the ship's Emergency Medical Hologram. While Crusher leads the group down the passageway, Lily steals away in a different direction.
On Earth, Riker finds Troi and Cochrane drunk in a bar. Troi justifies that the only way she could get Cochrane to talk to her was by shooting Tequila with him. Denying her drunken state, Troi offers her professional opinion on Cochrane. She explains, "He's nuts."
Picard and his team are tracking the Borg through the starship. As Crusher and her staff find Worf's team, Picard's team encounters the Borg, who have begun to assimilate U.S.S. Enterprise crewmembers. Worf's team engages the Borg in combat, but the enemies adapt to the crew's weapons too quickly to make any difference. The teams are ordered to regroup on Deck 15, but Data is captured. Picard cannot save him, so he quickly crawls into a Jeffries tube to escape. Face to face with Picard, Lily steals his phaser and demands an explanation and escape route. Picard agrees.
Geordi shows Cochrane the starship Enterprise through a large telescope on Earth and tries to convince him to launch his vessel the next morning. Geordi glorifies Cochrane by explaining that his ship will make first contact with alien life forms. Humanity will be saved if Cochrane launches his ship. Still drunk, Cochrane agrees.
Aboard the ship, the Borg Queen introduces herself to a bound Data, claiming that she is the Collective. Reactivating Data's emotion chip, the Borg begin to graph organic, human skin onto the android's arm. As Data is overcome by this new human sensation of touch, something he never thought possible, the Borg continue their work.
Lily and Picard wander through the service deck as the captain attempts to explain what has happened between Lily's time and his own. She begins to calm down until they suddenly run into a Borg-infested area. Quickly escaping in the Holodeck, Picard activates a Dixon Hill program. At a dance, he and Lily try to blend in without being noticed by the Borg. Following the Holodeck's story, Picard searches for Nicky the Nose and takes his machine gun. Killing the Borg with the gun, Picard retrieves the memory chip that contains all of the information the Borg has received. Lily then notices that the two dead Borg were once crewmembers of the U.S.S. Enterprise.
Back on Earth, Cochrane keeps hearing what an amazing historical figure he is and begins to question whether or not he wants to go through with the launch. He doubts his own nobility and flees the launch site. Geordi and Riker attempt to catch up with Cochrane in the woods and are forced to stun him with a phaser to return him to the Phoenix.
Lily and Picard join the rest of the surviving crew and discover that the Borg are outside of the ship. The retrieved memory chip reveals that they are reconfiguring the main deflector in order to contact the Borg of this century, calling them to Earth to assimilate the planet. Picard, Worf and Lieutenant Hawk put on space suits and venture onto the surface of the starship to stop the Borg.
Aware of Data's desire to become human, the Borg Queen offers him the chance to be entirely covered in human flesh and join the Borg, in an attempt to get the encryption codes from Data so she can obtain total control over the U.S.S. Enterprise. Outside the Enterprise, Hawk, Worf and Picard attempt to unlock the deflector dish. Attacked by a Borg, Worf's suit begins to depressurize. Two Borg are killed and Hawk is attacked. As the dish is released, a now-assimilated Hawk attempts to kill Picard. Worf saves the captain, but Hawk is killed. Picard and Worf then destroy the free-floating deflector dish.
On Earth, Cochrane explains to Riker that his only motivation for inventing warp travel was money. He never expected to save mankind, become a hero, or be instrumental in the founding of a new civilization. He simply wanted to retire in peace.
An argument ensues aboard the Enterprise as the majority of the senior officers believe that they should evacuate the ship, destroying it and the Borg. Picard won't give up, and insists they stay. Challenged by Worf, Picard orders him off the Bridge. Lily follows Picard into his ready room and demands that he explain his obsession with fighting the Borg. Picard declares he won't sacrifice the starship, and swears to finally make the Borg pay for all they've done. Lily quietly and calmly compares Picard to Captain Ahab, forever fighting his white whale — the Borg. Realizing that this fight could only destroy himself and his crew, Picard decides to evacuate the ship. Worf, Picard and Crusher activate the ship's self-destruct sequence. The countdown begins, and the crew leaves in escape pods. Picard surveys his ship and prepares to leave when he hears Data calling him.
Meanwhile , the earth-bound crew and Cochrane begin takeoff. Cochrane, Geordi and Riker take off in the Phoenix, and with music blaring, the three men launch successfully into orbit.
On the ship, Lily and Picard say good-bye and the captain goes to save Data. Entering Engineering, Picard confronts the Borg Queen, whom he knows from his experience with the Borg. The queen reminds Picard that it was not enough that he was assimilated, but that he needed to give himself freely to the Borg — she wished him to stand by her side as an equal to further the power of the Collective. Picard offers himself in exchange for Data, but the android does not comply. He refuses to leave, and at the queen's command, disarms the self-destruct sequence. He quickly enters the encryption codes, offering full control of the Enterprise to the Borg.
As Cochrane's ship nears warp, Data arms the U.S.S Enterprise's weapons and aims them at the defenseless Phoenix. At the Borg Queen's order, Data fires, but the missiles fail to hit the Phoenix. His deception of the Borg complete, Data smashes a conduit, releasing a gas that floods engineering, killing all organic material. As the Borg are destroyed, Picard climbs to safety and the Borg Queen falls into the deadly gas. With the Borg threat gone, Cochrane safely completes humanity's first warp flight.
Celebrating the flight back on Earth that night, Cochrane and the Enterprise crew see an alien ship land nearby. The doors open, and Zefram Cochrane makes Earth's first contact with an alien race — the Vulcans. Picard and his crew beam out, having witnessed this historic event, and the U.S.S Enterprise NCC 1701-E returns to the 24th century.

Star Trek - 'Beyond First Contact' The Borg - Making The Movie.
Starring Patrick Stewart, Jonathan Frakes, Brent Spiner, LeVar Burton, Michael Dorn, Gates McFadden, Marina Sirtis, Alfre Woodard, James Cromwell, Alice Krige, Neal McDonough, Robert Picardo, and Dwight Schultz. Directed by Jonathan Frakes.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard awakens from a nightmare about his Borg assimilation experience to an incoming message from Admiral Hayes. Hayes informs Picard that Deep Space Five reported that a colony has been destroyed. Completing the Admiral's sentence, Picard realizes who destroyed the colony — the Borg.
Picard calls a meeting and informs his senior officers that their ship has been instructed to patrol the Neutral Zone. Their orders are to protect the area from any possible Romulan uprising during a Borg attack. Despite protests from his officers, Picard remains faithful to his orders and the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC 1701-E begins to patrol the area. Later, Picard regretfully tells Riker that it is his own fault they are stuck in the Neutral Zone. Starfleet believes Picard to be too emotionally involved with the Borg because of his previous assimilation to tactically complete a mission against them.
The men return to the bridge to learn that Starfleet has engaged in combat with the Borg. Intercepting messages between the starships, the crew learns that the Federation is losing. Picard, with his Borg experience, knows he can help the fleet. He informs his staff that he will make a decision directly in opposition to Starfleet commands. With no objections from his crew, Captain Picard gives the order and the starship Enterprise sets a course for Earth and the attacking Borg cube.
A massive battle ensues and it appears that the Federation will lose the fight. Despite serious structural damage to the Borg cube, their strength does not weaken. Even the U.S.S. Defiant, commanded by Worf, does not appear to be able to turn the tides of the battle. As the starship Defiant is about to ram the Borg ship on a suicide run, the U.S.S. Enterprise beams aboard its crew, including Worf. Picard, having an inside perspective of the Borg and their vessel, focuses the firepower of the fleet on coordinates he knows to be critical. Just as the main ship is destroyed, a spherical escape pod flies out. The sphere creates a temporal vortex, catching the starship Enterprise in its wake. Immune to the paradoxes created by the time travel, the starship's crew learns that Earth at the present time appears to be inhabited entirely by the Borg. The commanding officers realize that the Borg have gone into the past and assimilated Earth, so they follow them back in time to repair the damage the Borg have done.
On Earth, over three centuries earlier, a somber Lily Sloane accompanies a stumbling, drunk Zefram Cochrane out of a bar after a night of revelry. Then, Lily notices a fast moving light. She hardly has time to ask what the object is, when the Borg vessel attacks. Back aboard the Enterprise, Picard demands that Data tell him the exact date and location the Borg ship is attacking. The location: central Montana. The date: April 4, 2063 — the day before First Contact. Realizing that the Borg have come to prevent first contact between alien life forms and humans, the crew knows they must stop the Borg and facilitate this exchange. They destroy the Borg sphere, and Dr. Crusher, Captain Picard, Commander Data, Commander Riker, Counselor Troi and other U.S.S. Enterprise crew transport down to Earth to survey the damage.
At the Borg attack site in Montana, the crew finds destruction and chaos. They split into groups to search for Cochrane. Data and Picard hunt for Cochrane's warp ship, the Phoenix. There they encounter a very angry and confused Lily, who believes Data and Picard to be members of a coalition that broke the cease-fire after World War III. She shoots at them in a rage, but impervious to bullets, Data approaches Lily. Overcome by fear and radiation, she falls to the ground. Dr. Crusher diagnoses Lily with radiation sickness caused by the damaged Phoenix, and inoculates the entire crew. Against Picard's better judgment, Crusher takes Lily to sickbay. Geordi is called to help repair the warp vessel and Picard becomes intrigued by its historical significance. In this vessel began the future as the world would know it, and the past as Picard remembers it. He reaches out to touch the ship. Data, curious about the human need for tactile reinforcement, attempts to create the same feelings he observes in Picard, but is unsuccessful in duplicating this aspect of humanity.
Aboard the ship, two crewmembers are sent to examine unexplained maintenance problems, and both disappear. Picard is called to the ship and discovers that the survivors from the Borg sphere have transported onto the ship and are taking over Deck 16. While Picard arranges teams to fight them, the Borg manipulate the climate of the deck to suit their needs and begin to spread throughout the ship. When the Borg attack sickbay, Crusher, her staff, and Lily escape through a Jeffries tube, thanks to a distraction by the ship's Emergency Medical Hologram. While Crusher leads the group down the passageway, Lily steals away in a different direction.
On Earth, Riker finds Troi and Cochrane drunk in a bar. Troi justifies that the only way she could get Cochrane to talk to her was by shooting Tequila with him. Denying her drunken state, Troi offers her professional opinion on Cochrane. She explains, "He's nuts."
Picard and his team are tracking the Borg through the starship. As Crusher and her staff find Worf's team, Picard's team encounters the Borg, who have begun to assimilate U.S.S. Enterprise crewmembers. Worf's team engages the Borg in combat, but the enemies adapt to the crew's weapons too quickly to make any difference. The teams are ordered to regroup on Deck 15, but Data is captured. Picard cannot save him, so he quickly crawls into a Jeffries tube to escape. Face to face with Picard, Lily steals his phaser and demands an explanation and escape route. Picard agrees.
Geordi shows Cochrane the starship Enterprise through a large telescope on Earth and tries to convince him to launch his vessel the next morning. Geordi glorifies Cochrane by explaining that his ship will make first contact with alien life forms. Humanity will be saved if Cochrane launches his ship. Still drunk, Cochrane agrees.
Aboard the ship, the Borg Queen introduces herself to a bound Data, claiming that she is the Collective. Reactivating Data's emotion chip, the Borg begin to graph organic, human skin onto the android's arm. As Data is overcome by this new human sensation of touch, something he never thought possible, the Borg continue their work.
Lily and Picard wander through the service deck as the captain attempts to explain what has happened between Lily's time and his own. She begins to calm down until they suddenly run into a Borg-infested area. Quickly escaping in the Holodeck, Picard activates a Dixon Hill program. At a dance, he and Lily try to blend in without being noticed by the Borg. Following the Holodeck's story, Picard searches for Nicky the Nose and takes his machine gun.

Vera Wilde, artist-in-residence at Hack42. Because Art & Science!
Hackerspace Hack42 is proudly hosting a new artist-in-residence. Dr. Vera K. Wilde (PhD PoliSci) is a (former) Harvard Kennedy School researcher. She is working on re-branding the Dark-Web to the EDTR-web, a place for Expressing, Dissenting, Teaching and Resisting.
The EDTR-web is using technologies like TOR and encrypted communications tools to create a place of freedom where centralised power cannot reach.
Vera will be using arts (oil painting and songwriting) as well as writing and political science methods to define and develop the EDTR-web as a social space and technological phenomenon.
This is our second photo-shoot together. We have great chemistry and it's loads of fun to shoot with her.
We got to play with a few props, listen to some music and experiment with light and posing.
