Uber is not illegal, they just have to follow the danish taxi laws.

Which they don't, hence they're not legal.

Since they ceased operation, they aren't "illegal" anymore than I am in my personal car, not operating a taxi service.
They were deemed in violation of existing rules and they ceased operation due to not wanting to nor being able to be in compliance with the current rules.

So they did not want to operate in a legal fashion.

Just because I don't steal and murder, doesn't make me a criminal.

If you perform an action that is illegal in one country, then you're not a criminal in that country. If you perform the same action in another country where that action is illegal, then you're a criminal in the other country. That is, if Uber were to continue their practice in Denmark, it would be illegal. The reason they're not criminals in Denmark is because they left Denmark.

What they did wasn't illegal. They challenged existing rules, not law, as I understand it.
If you're doing something and it becomes illegal and you stop doing that, it doesn't make what you did "illegal", only if you were to continue doing so - which they didn't.
So saying "Uber is not legal" is s misnomer.

But it is precisely because they keep doing so that they aren't in Denmark. Because that would make their practice illegal.

No, they point is, they to not keep doing it, because continuing the practice would be illegal. Uber are more than welcome to enter the Danish market within Danish regulations.
