Comment (by Thorin):

 FYI: there's also a text option, and don't conflict with the PB mode only
 prefs: i.e I know TB always opens in PB mode (by default), but I have no
 idea what happens if you have both icon prefs as true, that in a normal
 window, the icon will appear.

 {{{
 /* display "insecure" icon and "Not Secure" text on HTTP sites ***/
 user_pref("security.insecure_connection_icon.enabled", true); // [FF59+]
 user_pref("security.insecure_connection_text.enabled", true); // [FF60+]
    // user_pref("security.insecure_connection_icon.pbmode.enabled", true);
 // [FF59+] private windows only
    // user_pref("security.insecure_connection_text.pbmode.enabled", true);
 // [FF60+] private windows only
 }}}
