Every playwright stole their plots back then and Shakespeare ended up immortalizing stories that would have otherwise been forgotten

he also wasn't 'real' he never wrote any of his plays. all of it was written by others that didn't want to be in the public eye like protestants and women so they just credited an illiterate person (Shakespeare had to dictate his last will for someone else to write down because he couldn't read)
