note that Telstra are not challenging Amazon on behalf of freedom loving web users around the world, their claim is that they invented 1-click first

So? The end result can't be "patent gets transferred to Telstra", since Telstra didn't apply for a patent in the first place. If Telstra is shown to have "invented" one-click first then the patent will be nullified and the invention enters the public domain, right?
