My question here is HOW to set up VPN so that my HOSTS file is used?
Is it possible?

I should have been clear that I'm not "rolling my own VPN", where it
_would_ be easy to use my hosts file.

I'm using free public services for my VPN, for example:
https://www.freeopenvpn.org/

When we use public openvpn servers, we end up using their crappy HOSTS
files instead of ours, which have 100,000 lines in them to block things.

Is it possible to use a free VPN service but use our own HOSTS file?
How?
