I'm not sure if this has been mentioned yet ... apologies if so ..

UK internet service providers will be invited to tender for a British government scheme to monitor all internet communications and telecommunications.
Under the proposed Interception Modernisation Program (IMP), internet service providers (ISPs) would be required to link 'black boxes' to their servers to record all internet traffic, including details of emails, VoIP telephone conversations, instant messages and browsing habits. Telephone conversations would also be monitored.
