+#### Using NixOS:
+
+To install hosts file on your machine add the following into your `configuration.nix`:
+
+```haskell
+  networking.extraHosts = let 
+    hostsPath = https://raw.githubusercontent.com/StevenBlack/hosts/master/alternates/fakenews-gambling-porn-social/hosts;
+    hostsFile = builtins.fetchurl hostsPath;
+  in builtins.readFile "${hostsFile}";
+```

+* NOTE: The call to `fetchurl` is impure. 
+Use `fetchFromGitHub` with the exact commit if you want to always get the same result.
