Use flash on borg
Apply fire extinguisher to borg's head repeatedly

and if the roboticist gave them reinforced everything, feed him to the crew and then killswitch the borgs

It's not hard to find some sort of ID with robotics access (RD, roboticist, any Head):
-Flash
-Hit with ID
-Screwdriver
-Click and remove brain.

Especially easy when by the time the borgs have been rampaging long enough to be a problem the station is littered with bodies. Bodies with IDs, since borgs don't bother stealing them.
Hell, I've done this as an assistant with a stolen ID and no flash while being chased around the escape shuttle by a borg smashing me with rods. Just run in and hit him with the ID and run away, do the same with the screwdriver, then try and trap him in a corner for the two seconds it takes to rip the brain out.

I do think lasers should do FAR more damage to the cyborgs. Or perhaps at least blind them for a bit. And I think tasers should do a small, but not insignificant, amount of damage to the borgs. I mean you're essentially overloading their systems.

I definitely agree with pretty much everything on the AI though. Nannycam AI's should be more heavily policed/educated. Short of extreme danger to a human being the AI should never directly call out about suspicious or seditious behavior. There are no AI directives to be a security officer. And the bolting of anything interesting without orders is ridiculous. The doors are ID locked. The captain shouldn't have to ask for permission to get himself an RCD and anyone who really wants to break in can easily do it in just the first 3 minutes with a few tools, thermite, or a fire extinguisher anyway. And yet I see AIs bolting everything down every single round.
