Even if they go that route, and frankly I think they to get lynched, before we got to that point, they can’t monitor every single connection. That just way too much traffic.
That’s why China has a firewall, because that’s the best option they can come up with because monitoring every Chinese persons data is an impossible task. They’re only option would be to go North Korea route and just close the internet but that would basically end their economy.

There is actually a technique called steganography, that does exactly that. It is used to hide arbitrary binary info inside images, while still fooling your eyes into thinking there is nothing sketchy there.

The only new thing is that the UK government ist about to learn about those things.
