Magento 2 Hide or remove a ui element column

Question

I want to remove a column from the admin grid. This is the column:

<column name="ip">
            <argument name="data" xsi:type="array">
                <item name="config" xsi:type="array">
                    <item name="filter" xsi:type="string">text</item>
                    <item name="editor" xsi:type="array">
                        <item name="editorType" xsi:type="string">text</item>
                        <item name="validation" xsi:type="array">
                            <item name="required-entry" xsi:type="boolean">true</item>
                        </item>
                    </item>
                    <item name="label" xsi:type="string" translate="true" >IP Address</item>
                </item>
            </argument>
        </column>

And this is the file:

No need to overide the Amasty , the extension does it .Just click on the Columns and uncheck the Ip Address

(This is from their demo)
