Well, it would be more accurate to say that they are considering several giant steps. They want to install black boxes on upstream internet providers that will record ALL INTERNET ACTIVITY that originates in or from the UK.

It's a proposal right now, so who knows if it will become reality. Considering everything else that they've done that became reality, I'd be expecting it in a few years.
