Take away the past four hours

"Privacy, which has been a recent concern as voice-activated and "always listening" assistants get more sophisticated, could be addressed by smarter controls, Pichai said. For instance, a user could ask Google to take away the past four hours." (USA Today.)

Does "to take away the past four hours" mean 'to delete the past four hours of user activity from the computer-driven device memory by using voice-activated command only' in the above?
