So everyone has accepted the fact it will be illegal and are just thinking of ways around that are currently not needed since it's not currently illegal, proxy this, proxy that, that's not gonna work. . . or downplaying it as tin-foil hattery, nothing to fear etc.
Also about manpower to investigate, It's very shortsighted to assume someone is actually sitting somewhere on an hourly wage realtiming what happens online. There are computers that can calculate billions of chess moves per second you don't think they've already modeled collective potentials on simple browsing and downloading habits.
If a traffic flags someone is streaming (yes that will be illegal too) "poorly acted clearly fake russian rape-porn" (for example), a report can be generated, someone looks at the report later. Correlates who the flagged traffic is going to inside the UK and then they investigate further. Probably build up a case on everything you do and all your search queries to beef up a conviction. You get a letter one day giving you a court date.

Often the metadata is more valuable than the contents of the communication, because in most cases, one can retrieve the content, if there is metadata. And if not, you mark all future communications that fits this metadata and is of interest, so that henceforth it will be recorded completely. The metadata tells you what you actually want from the broader stream.
