Zephram got drunk and talked about them on the record.
There's probably footage of that still somewhere in the 24th century.

Seven's Parents
- Thread starter hux
- Start date
Dude, if you call where you've lived millenniums instead of centuries, compassionate people will at the very least buy you dinner.
The Hansen's gave Seven a Borg cube to play with (before ever encountering them!) clearly people knew shit about them
Picard isn't a butcher in a Danish Village. He's captain of the Federation's flagship. He was an adult when the Hansen's were disobeying Starfleet's order to come back. He would certainly be aware of the rumours
More importantly, what about Q? He swans about smugly explaining that humanity has never encountered anything like this before (oh except for all those humans who have been gossiping about them, discussing them, studying them, building cubes for their kids to play with and even following them into the Delta quadrant)
"But apart from that, Piicard!!!........humanity has never encountered anything like this, mwah ha ha"
Holly, the ship's computer from Red Dwarf, had read all the books in Red Dwarf's library. Since there were no new books available, Holly had Lister delete his memories of having ever read the works of Agatha Christie, so that Holly could do-over the experience of reading Christie for the first time again.
Maybe Q deleted all previously acquired human knowledge of the Borg from Picard, and his human crew (but not the alien Bartender) before their second season adventure together really got started?

I have to agree with this although - according to the TV series - the Hansens paid for their crimes with eternal servitude.
According to the novels, however they likely became part of the Caeliar gestalt, and currently are in better shape than Seven mentally and physically.
That's still an awful lot of people knowing stuff here, there and everywhere though (and that Borg cube was extremely detailed). What I do assume is that someone like Picard with a fascination for exploration and life on other worlds would certainly be very high on any list of people who would seek out and come into contact with that kind of rumour
They disregarded what was established by TNG purely to cut corners and get the Hansen's Borgified so they could then borrow Seven's parents magic skin tight body shielding and flesh out her back story. It totally undermines the importance of Q Who" for me (and unnecessarily)
As far as I'm concerned discussion can stop at this post - this covers it.
You must be new here
Discussions never stop
NEVER!!
They just keep going until people no longer know what's happening and start discussing beard maintenance or the benefits of having a talking vagina
Save yourself, it's too late for us
We see Seven's father as a drone, on board the Queen's ship (which was later destroyed). So it looks like he's space toast.
As for Seven herself: Do we know whether or not she wanted to accompany her parents on the mission? Maybe she thought it would be exciting, and asked to go along.
She was 6 or 7. There is no choice, unless you think ABANDONMENT or going somewhere with mom and dad is a choice.
For all we know, she could have brought him on board just for Seven to see and them beamed him back whence he came.
I think it's a given she fetched him for display purposes, yes.
