I didn't know the term "philosophical skepticism", thanks for giving me the correct one.

'Global skepticism' is really the correct one. 'Philosophical skepticism' is just a broad term for the doubting of normative justifications or knowledge.

(Also, re: everyone - I haven't actually seen that term used in the wild by people who are not me unless explicitly googling it. Maybe your impression results from reading my comments somewhere else?)

I doubt it very much. But some of the comments gave me the impression that it is in literature somewhere.
