Speedtest servers don't support HTTP connections anymore so I renamed the --secure parameter to --insecure and set it to False by default.

@sivel jfyi, because of this the default run no longer works:

$ speedtest-cli
Retrieving speedtest.net configuration...
Cannot retrieve speedtest configuration
ERROR: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden

Sorry about not mentioning it, but the reason why I submitted this PR is because (as @vaygr wrote), running speedtest-cli without any parameters doesn't work.

Can confirm that this is now an issue from where I test in UK.
Been working fine without using --secure for a long time - including yesterday.
But today it failed with failure to get configuration data plus 403 forbidden as reported earlier.
Changed my script to run with --secure and worked immediately.
