I think that if enough exit nodes would be owned by let's say government agencies they would be able to correlate requested domains with actual requester IP.

In addition to the traffic analysis mentioned in another reply, there are ways data can be leaked from Tor. One example from the crime documentary "Hunting Warhead": a white hat hacker managed to locate a darknet server running a forum software by setting his avatar image to a file hosted on a domain he controlled. The forum software retrieved the age via a regular internet route, exposing the actual host IP.
For maximum privacy, Tor should be used with software designed for Tor from the start.
What about Tor?
