Hacking Bushing releases “xyzzy”

[Wabsta]

Despite all the bashing and flaming that Bushing has received as of late. He still delivers when unexpected.. therefore he has released a tool that extracts keys from your own Wii

This program will do the following, automatically:

* Download IOS11 from the Nintendo Update Server
* Patch it to remove the MEM2 protection (so the PPC can access all 64MB of it)
* Patch it to allow it to delete itself later using ES_DeleteTitle()
* Find an unused IOS slot (counting downward from IOS255)
* Install the hacked IOS11 there
* Reboot into the hacked IOS
* Copy the private key structure from the IOS address space into MEM1
* Reboot back into a sane IOS
* Delete the temporary, hacked IOS
* Display the keys on screen
* Try to write them to a file on the SD card — keys.txt
* Pause for 60 seconds to allow you to copy the keys down using pen and paper,if necessary

X-easy?
after reading it i came pretty much to the conclusion he didn't really bother putting much effort in it, especially with it taking not too much effort.
so i think he didn't think that much about a name either.

Umm... What exactly does this tool do?

What does it mean by 'extracts keys?'
