This is correct, that rule changed this year. See: https://developers.google.com/events/io/help#reg_open

> Google I/O tickets must be used by the original registrant and are non-transferable. Tickets may not be sold, bartered, auctioned, or transferred in any way and doing so may result in Google rendering the ticket null and void without any responsibility to Google.

EDIT: to add, last year I bought a ticket and transfered it to a co-worker (my company picks 2 people a year to send, and I wasn't one of them last year. One of the people selected didn't get a ticket but I was able to, so I bought it and transfered it to him). So they've allowed it before, but I guess they wanted to get rid of the scalping market.
